Memories For This Unit

Best Friends
Ted Sheppleman, Herb St. Pierre, Clark Kirkbride, Joe Hargrave, Keith Burns, Shatava, Buchan, Brock, Vineyard

Best Moment
Cruises when I was team leader and platoon sergeant.
   

Worst Moment
2. When they took me out of the line platoons and stuck me behind a desk in S3.
1. Having lived through the incompetence of TC Taylor. The casualties approached those for approximately the same time length and number of troops when I was with A Co,1st Recon Bn in Vietnam.

Chain of Command
Really don't remember anyone who had an impression on me other than Jack Pharris on the 6 month Med cruise in 1972.
