"I think I remember you Michael! Have not seen Winfeild here. He was quite a flamboyant commander. Got in trouble I heard for trying to take illegal knifes home. Remember the knife in the boot. He was a good commander though. Welcome to the dragoon…"

"The Rock was really a great place to be. My quarters was 100m from the troop. Every thing was in walking distance. "
