All of their equipment will taken to a depot and re-distributed to deploying units.

 No more 1/1 CAV, sorry.

I’m not too torn up about it, it’s not the same 1-1 CAV that I was in (1988-1991), strictly in name only. Was never the same after they de-activated us after Desert Storm and moved the Squadron from Katterbach to Buedingen.

If you run across them throwing away any unit history from the time period I was in, let me know. I’m currently working on a scrap book of the CAV.
We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.

Hey Rutbah,

Are those contractors or military?  I'm assuming they're military because contractors aren't aloud M203s right?  Correct me if I'm wrong.

I wish I had pictures of mine but my Laptop I took is fried and I am still trying to get the hard drive to work just for my pictures.  I have learned not to take a laptop with a desktop chip in it (overheats) and to make sure I send my wife more pictures other than the nice ones.  

My Damaged EOTECH is comming back from L-3 today finally after 2 weeks.  It was not keeping the reticle on.

Well it did fire, but the bullets just made icepick wounds and never killed anyone! Luckily the enemy was too busy dragging away the wounded to fight because we all know that is what it was designed for!
