Jesse was one of our admins here until he passed away. He made a video of his time in F Troop. Maybe you will recognize a face or two.

By the way, did you know a guy named Jesse Kelley when you were in F Troop? He was there 1972-75 I believe.
Welcome to Dragoon Base, Jose. Not many know about 2/14ACR's attachment to 2ACR. Hope you can share some of your knowledge.
If you have any questions, problems, or just want to talk, give me a holler or one of the guys in the Oldtimer's group. That is the most active group here.
