John Armezzani, who is retired long-time 1st Grouper is in some of the photos and has an entry on their main page saying that they are operating out of the 1st Group compound...was there a particular question you had about them or were you just interested in what they do?

So did I. He was a character and I'm sure he still is. My favorite memory? A former teamate of his sold a story to Soldier of Fortune magazine complete with a picture of him in it. He was a little upset about it because he was still on active duty.
