Toujours Pret Rick,

Welcome home Troop.
The DragoonBase here at Ning.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,

Tell us a little about your cav days.

Assigned to Bamberg, FRG and conducted border tours out of Hof, FRG. I also did my time in Graf and ended up in a Border Operations Center in Hof. I really miss those days in Bamberg and when assigned to the reaction force in Hof. Every now and then, I reminisce about the "Tears for Fears" music that drifted throughout the barracks in Hof.

Tell us a little about you now.

Left Army and became a police officer. Involved in law enforcement for over twenty-one years, now. I also served 16 months in Iraq as an International Police Liaison Officer training and mentoring the Iraqi Police Forces.
