Tell us a little about your cav days.
I remember pulling border duty, patrolling the west german /chechoslavkian border ,freezing our butts off during Capstone and Troop Fight in those cold winters. The really cool people who were in 3rd Herd and just Pond Barracks in General. Remember a sad day when Sgt. MaCrane died rolling out of the gate at Camp May ready to pull a patrol, had no buisiness being there because he was clearing !!!. Remember the City Treff , Fontaine , Sundown, Melody and all the other rockin' watering holes !! FUN TIMES BROS !!
Tell us a little about you now.
Living and working in Graf , Germany , DoD employee. Have a wife ,2 daughters ,and 2 grandchildren. Still trying to keep fit in the gym and all that but it keeps getting harder and harder as I get older and older, lol. Miss the old days and the good people that made those days worth missing, awsome !!
