      Hi Andrew,

      Had contact with Roger Kauffman, and saw your message. I was in Support Platoon (73-76). Don't think I remember you from Redeye. I knew Dietrich, Cunningham, and a guy by the name of King (from Florida). King was in Oregon about 20 years ago, and left a voice message on my home phone, but I never could reach him.

      Thanks Andy, or do you prefer Andrew, I had heard the term Reforger used many times on Dragoon Base by troopers who came after  me and couldn't figure out what they were talking about. I sumize there were a lot of changes that took place after my time was up in 1960. One of the changes I was aware of was that when I was in Germany we were called companys not troops and it was 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Battalions. Our company was Howitzer Company, later refered to as Howitzer Battery.

      Andrew, thanks for the friend request, I have a question, what is a reforger, I see a lot about it but that was after my time, 58/60.

      Welcome home Trooper.
      The Dragoonbase.com, has
      plenty of updated features
      (similar to MySpace), lots of sub-groups,
      (Officers Club,F-Trp,Amberg,Medics,etc),
      and links for “2nd Cavalry Assn.”
      News and History Centers.

      Robb Russell has posted some tips for
      navigating the site(ie,photos,links,ect)
      in the Forum.

      Please feel free to stop by and read the
      latest “Tacoma Dave's ‘Triva Quiz’”,
      you can learn some 2nd Cav history,
      and you could even, win a kool prize.

      If you need any help, you may contact
      Robb Russell, or any of the 5 admins listed
      at the top of the page, or just yell out,

      And our only wish is to,
      ‘Keep it clean’.
      Use your real name and picture,
