Tell us a little about your cav days.
My room started out being at the top of the stairs of the second floor on the right across from the latrine. Eddie Gamble, Price and Degrout were some of my room mates. Later on I moved down the hall and on the back side of the building. Captain Bird (who drove a orange BMW) was very good to me along with SSgt Crump who drove a small red pickup with a slide on camper. Sgt.s Gast and Puckharber were my tank commanders. Sgt Weston was the man to see if you wanted to buy a car and Howard P. M. Wamsley was one of my best buddys
Tell us a little about you now.
I just broke my arm over the week-end so now I have time to look back into the past. I'm married for the last 29 years with 2 beautiful girl's ages 28 and 19. After my dad died in 2007 we bought the family homestead in which I grew up in. My present job is with the Town of Franklin, on the water/sewer dept. for which I have been with for the last 24 years.

Toujours Pret Richard,Welcome to the new DragoonBase, the new Base has plenty of newer features, lots of sub-groups,(ie,F-Trp,Amberg,Medics,etc.) and links for 2nd Cav News and History.
Robb Russell has posted some tips for navigating the site (ie,photos,links,ect) in the Forum.
Make sure you stop by and read the latest Tacoma Dave ‘Triva Quiz’, learn some 2nd Cav history and you can even win a kool prize.
If you need any help, you can contact Robb, 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, ‘Keep it clean’, use our Real names/with Pictures(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 the new DragoonBase.
Thanks again for joining Dragoon Base, and for your service to our great country,
Jesse Kelley
Good to see someone who was on the Rock at the same time. I was in C Troop 1974-75. Spent most of the time on the border or in the field though.
