Hi Rick! I told DK Johnson you live in Arkansas I was right! Do you remember Jimmy Chadwell? Was my best friend. Found out that he die really young only 34 from what his brother told me he couldn’t leave alcohol alone and chain smoked bad ! And William Smith also died a few years ago Damn! My number is 15093314349 please give me a call and leave a message if I don’t answer!
Very to hear and see another warrior, Rick hope you and your family are doing well.
Rick, Albee, and DK -
What a great surprise to see you all on this chain!! Rick and I found each other at Ft Chaffee, AR back in 1996 when I commanded 1st Sqdn and we were there for training from Ft Polk. Had since lost contact again. I retired from the Army after 32 years at the end of 2007. Had a great run, mainly because of the experience as a young platoon leader in C Troop and what I learned from you all. That assignment established the baseline for everything else I experienced in the Army and I'm so thankful for it. I'm in Waco at 571-214-1516....would enjoy hearing from you all. TOUJOURS - Bill Weber
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RICK
Wishing you many more, from all of us at DragoonBase!!!
Rick,
All the C Troopers you have listed on here, I'll have to assume Tom Molino was your CO. There are quite a few people on here from C Troop our time. I left in February '75.
Gene Beck is here, Jack Miller is here, Tom Molino is here, just to name a few.
Toujours Pret!
