5th Group
 

Two things, 1. I was Tm Sgt of 585 from 89 to Feb 92 when I retired. but I didn't ROAD. 2. A question to ODA 572 was the TM SGT Johnny A. Axxxxxx nick named 'half face" If it's the one I know and served with, he had Bell's Palsey on OKI and picked up the nick name. Blitz

admin edited for PERSECThanks for the edit. Blitz

Yup, that had to be the John A. I knew.
 

John A. did have Bell's Palsey. I always said he looked like a pirate with one bulging eye and a drooping grin. But it never slowed him down. He was TS of the HALO team of A/3/5 when I became his light weapons sgt.

He's now with Archangel out in Colorado. Opinions very on that. Out of past respect I read his book, "The Green Beret in You". A little thick on the virtues of being SF but the world would be a better place if more people behaved that way.

Still a great guy in my book.

Kurt
