Welcome aboard Sergeant Major.

Welcome aboard SGM. It was great to spend time with you at the SHOT Show this year. Memories of the events will be permanently etched on my brain. Best wishes to you.

Welcome aboard SGM, last time I saw you was at Lakehurst in my little facility as you were packing out for another trip.

Greetings All,
Thanks for having me,
I guess it all started with my old man in 68-70 draftee, Light weapons specialist 5th group 1/503rd 173rd(A).
I followed up in 2002 as an X-ray, joined the detachment NOV 2004 and am chilling in OEF on my second tour. So far so good and the end is in sight.
Wanna say thank you to all the great men that made the Regiment. Wrote the book in the jungles and all sorts of places that sucked away from family and friends and with no support from home. I thank my father everyday for what he did and do the same of all of you gentlemen as well.
Jon Z.

Greetings
Hello
I was referred here from another website. I am currently a master's student doing prelminary research for my thesis topic. I am interested in the early years of the 10th SFG, particularly from 1953-1961 while in Bad Toelz, Germany. I will continue to search the site before posting any questions I may have. Regretfully, I have never served in the military.
John
