Could not pull up the map but great memories of that place and time. Our kitchen was a field kitchen under a GP Medium, we had the Million Dollars Bath room that seldom had hot water where we all washed our clothes in the sinks. Hard to understand how we fit all those men and duffel bags into the tar paper shacks,it got easier as time went on. Being low man on the totem I did not have the pleasure to meet the warrior you speak of but was very aware of the legacy and tradition dating back to the glider troops.
