My border duty was in Hof and Kronack from 60 to 63 and it was always very good duty. We relieved the 14th at Bad Kissingen Jan. thru Feb. 1963 this was not very good duty, it was soooo cold and everything was new. I don't think I every saw much sunshine during this tour.
The only thing good I can remember is I turned 22 while I was there.
Border duty was a very good job to have, better than playing army.
Best Regards, Ken Morrow

This was the third design of the 2d Cavalry DUI, worn from 1924-1931. The sharp points on the ends of the bottom scroll again called for a redesign.
