Chief, you and your D Company guys went all-out for Steve. Pretty easy to see that the bond you forged all those years ago has only gotten stronger with time. The legacy of the 2d Dragoons.
Thank you for sharing him with us.

Hi, Sig. Pretty hot up here too. Supposed to hit 94 in my area. East of the mountains is supposed to be well above 100 in several places.

Many thanks for the birthday wishes, you guys. Somehow, I managed to survive another one. Even won a couple bucks playing poker with friends. That paper bag under my arm in the picture Chief posted is full of poker chips and five-dollar bills.
The elk pelvis I'm wearing is a joke gift I gave to an old friend a few years ago on her birthday. Since then, if you get caught playing poker or hanging out on your birthday, you have to wear the pelvis.
Rest in peace, SGT "Z". Until the Green.

Warren Wagner (Ret) wrote, are one time CO of Delta company not only does it reflect service of Steve. It also reflects about how all of us felt serving in 2nd Cav. So many years ago and still serving in our hearts and mind. Dragoon for life Chief

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.
