      I was at Home Depot a few months ago, and one of the clerks came up to me and commented on my baseball cap, a raggedy old thing with a C-1/2 guidon on the front. Told me he was former 1st Cav. He was pretty stunned when I told him there wasn't a 1st Cav anymore.

      My troop was at Pitman when we first painted the Sheridans camo. It was during the summer of 1974.

      Paint was hardly dry on this one when we blew it up two days before my 21st birthday.

      Welcome Brother Trooper.
      The Dragoonbase.com, has
      plenty of updated features
      (similar to MySpace), lots of sub-groups,
      (Officers Club,F-Trp,Amberg,Medics,etc),
      and links for “2nd Cavalry Assn.”
      News and History Centers.

      Robb Russell has posted some tips for
      navigating the site(ie,photos,links,ect)
      in the Forum.

      Please feel free to stop by and read the
      latest “Tacoma Dave's ‘Triva Quiz’”,
      you can learn some 2nd Cav history,
      and you could even, win a kool prize.

      If you need any help, you may contact
      Robb Russell, or any of the 5 admins listed
      at the top of the page, or just yell out,
      another member may be able to help you.

      And our only wish is to,
      ‘Keep it clean’.
      Use your real name and picture,
      (pix from back in the day,work best
      for searching for Brothers),
      but any picture will do.

      And that you please tell all your friends
      about, where to find the DragoonBase.

      Thanks again for joining Dragoon Base,
      and for your Service and Dedication,
      to Our Great Country.

      Well, well.....a Dragoon from the OTHER Regiment!

      Welcome, for sure! Good to see one of the "original Dragoons" representing their Regiment.

      Weiden, huh? Spent more than my share of time at Camp Pitman there. It was like jail, with tanks, and the trustees got to air out the vehicles from time to time.
