Tell us a little about your cav days.
I was the lucky Co that didn't pull border duty plus I staqyed in command of D Co for over 2 yrs befor the dreaded staff job working for a Major that I would still like to put down range as a moving target on range 16. If I recall I had 3 trips to Graff and 2 or 3 to Hoenfels(?). Never could spell. Had 2 best friends Cpt Ralph "Spiderman" Barber and Cpt LeRoy Robinson. I loved everyday.
Tell us a little about you now.
I am a retired CA state worker. I am disabled and perm in a wheel chair due to wounds in RVN. My wife, of 40 yrs, Jane Anne, that was in Germany with me died 3 years ago, leaving me to wander the streets looking for a new mate but can't remember what to do if I find her. I stay in touch with a couple guys but have lost most. Pass y days fighting with VA, it's fun even if they are't VA or the guys their chasing now.

Wishing you many more, from all of us at DragoonBase!!!
Good to see you here! It's been a long time since those day in the 70's on the Rock. Sure was fun while we were there tho.
All the best.

You will find several members here with similar physical conditions, but we're all of the same mindset: trying to connect and reconnect with those who we served with, and meet those we didn't. You may want to contact Wayne Dixon who is in a very similar situation as you. Take a look at our Odltimer's group.
