      My name is Richard Russell and I'm looking for Brian Michael West, wife name Ingrid. We were stationed in Friedburg Germany and I think we were in the 67 AR.

      Hey Brian,

      I just found this site. It's pretty cool.

      I got to Squadron 3 weeks before we deployed. When we got back from deployment, I stayed in C Trp until after gunnery--then I went to the S-1-- that's probably why you can't place me.

      SGT West,

      I remember you during the Gulf War. I was in 3rd Plt with Lt Groton and SFC Donaldson. I was on Lt Groton's track.

      Dang that's a good looking machine behind you. I was in Delta from 82 to 84 and HHT after that until July of 85. Good luck to you...Mike Sawick...

      Ahh man, sorry to hear that. I ran into Cablay and he came to my BNCOC graduation in 96 at Knox. I didnt see many people after Bindlach, a few here and ther. I did run into a guy who got to HWB a year after I left. He is friends with my wife. Small world huh.

    Tell us a little about your cav days.

    Patrolling the East German and Czechoslovakian border was one of the most fascinating parts of my life. I participated on 15 Border tours, mostly at Camp Gates and a few at Camp Hof, one Border tour at Camp Pittman in Weiden. Spent a year at Squadron Border Operations as well as transitioning from a cold War to High intensity conflict of the Gulf war while in 1st Squadron. Great Unit.


    Tell us a little about you now.

    I work as a Subject Matter Expert for a U.S. Army simulation system called the “CCTT –Close Combat Tactical Trainer” in Orlando Florida. I get a chance to travel back to Germany now and then, I always drive back to see the Rock. Last time I was there, the names on the wall could still be seen.
