1/1 knocked it out of the park
We just got back from almost 3 weeks in okinawa and the highlight was seeing our friend awarded his tab by the 1/1 Command Team. They pulled out all the stops and held a formal ceremony for him and gave us a tour of the new compound and even arranged for him to meet a couple teams, including the equivalent of his team from back in '65. I was so impressed and proud of what they did and how they handled everything-a true tribute to 1SFG.
On a sad note, that same day we attended the memorial for Gene Warfield at the Torii Chapel. His widow spoke and it was heartrending. Gone too soon.
