Terry,

Ditto on the coins. I wasn't that aware of them until reading a book by an SF type from 12th Group - fiction - that mentioned them extensively in regard to operations centering around Orogrande Range in NM.

I will post some pics soon that I think you will recognize from my time in 8th Group. While the "Turtle Club" escapes me, the "Tarpon Club" as a place for a great dinner remains in my mind from "those days"!
