Hi Robert, I'm still alive, thank you, but struggling to breath at times. Lungs have been giving me a hard time the past few months. Freezing weather for the next week sure isn't going to help any.

Don't know if any of you guys remember Jeff Stamper. He was my very first friend on the original Dragoon Base many years ago. Jeff is in the hospital riddled with cancer and it doesn't look good. Prayers would be appreciated.

2d DRAGOONS

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.
