Comments: Hey Everyone, Looking for Manchus names are fuzzy. Was with HHC (driver for S1)@ Greaves from 11-85 to 02-86 and then went up to Aco. Was the Company Clerk and XOs driver for a bit and then went to 2nd Plt. Names may be fuzzy but memories are not. Many nights in Itawon mostly at the Heavy Metal Club but a few at MTV. Was Santa's escort when he visited Freedom Bridge Christmas 85. Ms Santa was a cutie from the Rec Center at Greaves. Does anyone remember the S-1 Sgt from that time frame? Sharkey, Snarky somthing like that I think. Also looking for the Bn CO and XO drivers :) Halloween 86 on the Bell. We ran from Bell to the Freedom Bridge and back then spent that evening drinking cheap ass wine at the club. We were KISS lol. If your on Facebook search Mancu and join up with a bunch uf us. Keep Up the Fire Yall!

Comments: Does anyone know of any pictures of Camp Edwards (East) circa 87-88. Or even anyone actually STATIONED there around that time? Seems like 87 was a time of redesignation (my basic training unit was also re-designated during my time there), and trying to internet search the 1/5th barely hits anything relating to Korea, and most of THAT is more Camp Howze related.

He stammered .their really shushooting at us...after he took over my radar duties and i got tosee the N.K. enlisted with his one hnd on the fence and his other grossly twisted behind his back, I cleaned my rifle in the stand to bunker and with the dawn caught hell for going on the patrol that cleared the east side of the fence....ect ect.god how I miss it and You all.

I could use a few drinks from the Moon club. I think they were called lig meals. Consisted of Soju Pineapple juice and kin. 3 and you wouldn't have to worry about a hangover. You woke up still drunk. I think my other favorite club was the Rendezvous, Studio 54. How about drinking Kettle's in Tokorei. Remember being on DRF1 during the holidays and the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders gave us a special show? I remember when Steve Flores heard the Tigers down by the gate on GP Collier. He was pretty scared. Talk about some wild times. I still remember walking up to the Barracks on Ft. Lewis and seeing Bruce M. Beard hanging out the window by his ankles. It was usually Batson who was hanging him out.
