Oh, by the way, I see you live in Knoxville. I lived in a little suburb of Chattanooga for a while by the name of Soddy Daisy. Love East TN! We have a daughter, son in law, and grand daughter in Dayton. We get down there a couple times a year. East TN is where i want to end up when I retire

Thanks Dale! I get up to that area on a regular basis on business. Next time up I'll try and look him up.

Take care,

Jim

Hi Dale,

I see on your page, that you were friends with Roger Tegge. I think his dad (Gemne) was the Master Sgt over the mess hall in Hof while I was on permanent party there (1975). I met Roger a few times when he cam e to visit. Do you still have any contact with Roger?
