This guy on Facebook....
 

Yes, I know, I shouldn't be surfing FB in the first place. :cool:

But this guy has caught my attention. There is a post by the US Army Special Forces Command about training with Russian military at Ft. Carson.
This Matt Kumm posted a comment about the 10th Group being his "old unit" and that he's been to "that range".
Taking a quick look at his profile I have my doubts that this guy was ever with Group.
Dunno if somebody wants to run his name through AKO, and if he's not for real send him a nice reminder to not claim SF if he wasn't.

Did not see a Matt Kumm on AKO, do not recall him in 10th. But that isn't uncommon, my memory for names is shot.

Thanks Destrier.

I also found this Matthew Kumm, claiming service with 10th SF:

Says he served from 93 to 97, rank Specialist. Some of the photos on this page look like Vietnam...?

Location is the same as in the FB profile, Ohio.:confused:

hmm I got to 10th in fall of 88, I do not recall this other guy either.

I think it's the same guy. Matt, Matthew, location Ohio. Would be too much of a coincidence to have two Kumm's serving in 10th.

I posted in that FB thread, asking him which BN. he was in.

1988. Have you been with 1st Bn. in Tölz? Thank you for your service!

10th SFG in WW1? - Chu Lai? - 1969?.........When did the 10th Group serve in VN?.....:rolleyes: Put CSB on it and we'll know for sure....:D

Could not have been Tolz for 93-97, the Bn moved in 1991 to Stuttgart. I was with 1/10 and SOCEUR from 93-97 and do not remember a Kumm. We would have had lots of fun with that name...

MVP

Yes, I was there for the closing ceremony (and saw Big Al D. cry...) ;)

According to this Vet website he was a Specialist... AFAIK you have to be at least a E-4P to make it to the SFQC, and make E-5 upon qualification.

Something's fishy with this Kumm (pun intended...:D)

makes no mention of being at Devens prior to the move to Carson. or in 1-10 prior.

the 2nd photo (huey) could have been taken at Butts Army Airfield or the FCCO main gate. There is a UH-1 (or was) at both locations.

I'm with MVP, we would have known this guy with a name like that.

Could he be another 05b in support Bn,, with a stretched imagination?? :munchin

Sounds like a poser to me........:eek:

Big Teddy :munchin

Isn't 05B long gone? He says he was in 93-97...

The Vet page lists a couple of different outfits that he's been with. Aviation support, signal and 10th Group...:confused:

Quite a few units for only a 4 year career.....

SO,, maybe I am also long gone?? :D

Maybe 05B was replaced by 25C ?? :confused:

Well, the MOS is long gone. Yeah, looks like they call a Radio Operator a 25 Charlie now. 95B's are 31B's and God knows what else. Gotta love the new Army...:D

The Kumm-of-sum-young guy hasn't replied to my question on FB yet...:confused:
