Tell us a little about your cav days.
I'm sure we all have about the same stories to tell.. the famous fights at Graf.. (the place is probably still off limits). The long, cold days and nights on the range and the partys at Hof, and Coburg.
Tell us a little about you now.
After the Cav.. I had another 3 year tour in Germany and a couple of tours with the 101st in Kentucky and college after that. Upon graduating, I worked as a teacher in a middle school. In 1989 I joined the Police Department.
Name a few buddies you served with that you would like to find.
James Mursell (RIP Jimmy), Steve Rambo from Philly, Tomas Velez from NY and Edgar Pagan from PR.

Hey Bob,
I don't know if you knew Col. Joe Krawczyk has terminal cancer. He doesn't have long, if you want to contact him.
Bob, yes we still have a Cav store, but it is a new store under different management. Not run by the association anymore.
Here is the link: https://www.2dcavstore.com/

Hello Bob, will you be able to attend the 2d Cav. Reunion in October 2013?
I will be there GOD permit. rvpsabot@comcast.net
Yep that was him, Bullard. That guy was a terror on one of his drunk nights, but I guess we were all pretty wild when we weren't in the field.
The only person I remember at the motor pool was this big ole Indian everyone called Chief. That guy could pick up a 50 gal can of 30 wt oil, but he didn't speak much.
Always up for a cold one, Bob. Give me a call when you hit town. 253-327-4062.
No Bob, not tomorrow. Although I belong to the "waiting list" I WAS able to get two tickets for both games. Problem is my wife who is a nurse works every other weekend and this weekend, when she is off, has to take my step son back to school. I would liked to go this weekend but I can't make it happen - I was entitled to two tickets and there is three of us - me and two young boys (9 and 11). It should be a good game - enjoy.
