It was a mess from our point. Aug 5 90 to May 20 91 ....run with ODA 591 out of FT Campbell for most of the working 100 hrs.
Retired in 94 with 21 years.
Miss it....

I do in some ways, but it's really nice to live in a high, dry, cool place away from the sweat, the bugs and all of that. ...good to be with family, too.

One of the finest asschewings/group motivation speeches I ever heard was at Ft. Ord, about 70 -71.
Seems a new guy to the local EOD detachment there called for a ride from the Greyhound Depot. Someone told him "take a cab".
Wrong.
The senior NCO doing the group counseling#39; said he'd have unit cohesion - unity - cooperation with his soldiers or life would become most unpleasant.
I often thought about that day when I was Watch Commander at the jail or Patrol Div. Served me well.
