Hey mojaveman, I left sig co in may 83 and went to A/3/5, I'm sure we've done business together. I was a 05BS at that time, then 18E

Hey glebo,

Were you the one who got shot in the head by the sniper trainee at Mott Lake around '86?

SGM Jakovenko

Hey Team Daddy,

Did you know SGM Jakovenko? He was one of my favorites. A Son Tay Raider and true barbarian.

I seriously doubt you'll find anyone that served in 5th Gp during that time that doesn't know SGM Jake. Or CSM Foreman....

CSM Foreman

Knew him too. Met him by way of having a mustache that was a little bit too large. My ears were smoking after that encounter...

LOLOLOL, I didn't, until now. I was out there attending SOT back in 85. (I think)

He was either a very bad shot or you have a very hard head.

Haaaaa, was alittle of both. He decided to warm up his barrel by shooting at a tree between me and him (not at the warm-up target)....guess what?? bullets don't exactly exit straight out of the tree It was at the stairwell apparatus.

John jordan was standing slightly to the right rear of me. We kept hearing that "zip/pop" sound and wondered what it was. He (the sniper stud) had by the time he got me cracked off about three/four rounds.

Shoulda known to "hit the dirt" after the first one, after hearing that in the wharehouse apparatus more than once

SFC Jordan

Hey Glebo,

Was that the white Jordan or the black Jordan? I heard that the latter died during a HALO jump at Dugway Proving Grounds, UT in '87. I liked him.

That was the vanilla version Jordan. At the time he was 572 TSGT. I hear he's running a tourguide gig out of ....crap there goes my memory again, I think California.

Yeah, poor Sherm, was a great guy. I'm reminded of him often, I work near Mike Pevlar and Bill Gregory, they were on that jump.

Memories

Do you remember the infamous Orogrande 'beer bash' of '83?

It was a few months before my time but it's legendary stuff.
