Just for wondering about the bad old days. That firebase and tower - Any idea how old it is? Ever wonder who some of the ancient warriors trod those same roads you do? Russians, Brits, Sikhs, Mongols? Alexander the Great's armies?
I know the feeling we got sailing down "The Slot" and through Ironbottom Sound. |

I was surfing the internet a year or so ago and stumbled across a picture of my dad from 1944. He passed away in 1986, and I had not known this picture ever existed while he was alive.
 That's my dad, the Aircraft commander, back row right end. VP-125 Crew 9 San Julian, Cuba 25OCT44 Top Left: Ens Marshall, Lt Palmer;, and Lt Harrington Bottom Left: Troyan, ARM3c, Forbes, AOM3c, and Cochran, AMM3c Lest we foget. I almost did. Not many of these guys left around. So if you see one, say thank you. We'll never know what they went through for us. I lived with one, and he never said a word about it. I miss you dad. Happy landings... |

Well I guess I'll jump in here with a picture of my dad (in the center) in Germany. Not too exciting, he's just enjoying a beer with his Army buddies:
 He died in the early 90's way before I ever developed a love for guns. Too bad since he might have been able to teach me about the ones he trained with, and we could have enjoyed some quality time shooting. This was the patch he wore while there in the mid-50's:  Does anyone know what this patch was? azski |

Im not sure, it was there during the Russion occupation. Im sure its seen its share of battles and it survived several rocket attacks while we were there.
We were lucky that the Hadjis couldnt aim rockets  FREE

That was a GW1 pic. I think the story goes that his Bradley got nailed almost point blank by a T-72? |

Nope. His Bradley got whacked by friendly fire--an Apache mistook them for Iraqi forces, IIRC. |

You don't get much tougher than the men who were able to survive the Death March and subsequent slave labor camps on Bataan and then Japan during WWII.

One of my ROTC commanders just got promoted to Lt. Col....was flying in a helo (scout helo I think) and was shot down in GW1, they crash landed and the Iraqis started shelling their position, he said they just left all their gear and ran for it...they were rescued by some Bradleys but their NBC gear was left behind...the Bradley he was in was destroyed (im not sure if he knew how) but he was alright...they thought the Iraqis would use chemical weapons and he made peace with the fact that he was a dead man (NBC gear left behind)...talk about bad/good luck. He wears a 1st CAV combat patch... |

Actually it was an Iraqi policeman who was kidnapped from his own bed while he slept, then bound and blindfolded and then shot in the head. One of my good friends was in the unit that took this picture, he was at the river bank that day. |
