Tell us a little about your cav days.
Mike Ratolo and I where best buds and on the Color Guard together. We wore the 1836 Uniforms...very cool (sabers), but they were very uncomfortable, We were requested all over Germany and went TDY good times. The most fun was massed colors events. Just the look on everyone's face when we pulled the cover off the Regimental Colors and those 76 battle streamers dropped out! It would get quiet and then wow.. .
Tell us a little about you now.

Hello to another '63 alumni. We were there the same time but doubt our paths crossed. Take a look at our Oldtimer group. You may see familiar names or faces.
