I arrived in July 69, and immediately whisked away to Camp May on the border. For the next 9 months I was a Platoon Leader in K Troop.

Lt. Smith. Sorry, but we just missed each other in Amberg. I left in March '69. Was Lt. Topping and Lt. Bishop still with K Troop? Also 1SG Folger? Great time with great people. Thanks for responding.

Ed; Do you remember Sp 4 Greg Griffith (or Griffin) or Spec 4 Halpern. They were both in Personnel when I was in 3/2 Troop K in '68. Good to hear from you, although I am not certain I remember you, without a picture. It has been a few years.
