| Comments: | I'm currently working with the First Cav Association to set up the 1st Cav Motorcycle Club. They've shown a real interest in putting this together, which is great since I don't have time to organize it and they have excellent resources.
Please go to their website and sign the Guest Book stating your interest. Mention "1st Cav Motorcycle Club" in the subject line. Look forward to riding with you in the future. |

In country Feb. 1967 - Feb. 1968
I am thankful and grateful that this was the worse and the best times of my life!

| Comments: | Was lift platoon NCOIC with F/9 in 72. Had the greatest bunch of troops I ever worked with in my 20 years with Uncle Sam. Have heard from a few of the crew and would like to hear from all who were with unit when I was. Lost all my contact info when computer crashed.
Live in Everett, WA now.
Funy, thougt myself old at 31 when I was there. Courrse had a lot of young troops working with me. Remember most of the pilots were young ones too.
Can't make reunions due to being in wheelchair, but still enjoying life. |
