Was with the 1st right out of Bragg in 1969, A-213, went over with M.Whitt and M. Blackwell, left Oki to CCC than TF2AE, back again to the 1st and returned with the colors after revision to Bragg to join the 5th group, great time and great memories

The biggest rush is yet to come; live fast, die young.
I served in Lop Buri, Thailand from April '73 til they were inactivated in March ''74. Initially on SFT 42 "Freedom Runner" and then on SFT 44 HALO Team teaching at the Thai Jump School at Erawan and Skydiving on weekends. That was a lifetime ago, but I treasure the memories of all the guys I served with.
