Hi Cosme,
Nice to hear from you. I were in A Troop (1969-1970) as an Acting Sargent and Scout track leader. Spent time in Weiden and Rotz Camps doing Patrol and OP. I don't remember Raymond Walters. If I see a photo maybe. I keep in contact with Michael Ellinger, another member of A troop. In a near future I'm planning to include photos of those days in the Rock in my page (empty now). For now best regards, Merry Christmas and a couple of photos for your information.

Hi Cosme. I checked a friend of mine that was at Bindlach at the same time as me, both od us cooks. He said we were in B Troop, some times I have to think extra hard to remember. We, Jim and I arrived late January and ETSed out in early October of 70.Thanks for Serving.
Hello Cosme, been a while, hope your doing ok, Just wondering, do you remember the Op site that was built in 1969 in the woods right on the Border, I was thinking it was op site 50, but I may be wrong, thought you might remember, I remember them working on it with SFC Murphy was on the Border, I remember it was replacing the old site, and I can't remember where that was at either !! Anyhow if you can remember, write me a line or two..Thanks, Mike
I knew a fellow by the name of Orlando Ortiz,and Villagomez. Not sure about the spelling on the last name.There were a couple other guys from Puerto Rico but don't recall their names
Hi Cosme,
I don't remember the girls but my mom knew them. She also told me a story about my dad, you, and a Thanksgiving dinner.
Hi Cosme,
Yes, he was my dad. He retired in 1974 and passed away in 2002 from an auto accident.
Hi Cosme, No I sure don't remember SFC Murphys first name...wish I could... say did you get to see Gilberto Ortiz awhile back, if so I hope he's doing ok, take care Mike
Hello Cosme, Do you know what ever happen to SFC Murphy ?
Hi Cosme,
Thank you for the info.
