That reminded me of a conversation we had 30 years ago about the Wagner festival in Bayreuth. I was a young SSG back then. I just wanted to thank you for all the leadership you showed.

This is Steve Oliver from 1/2 ACR. I served from June 1969 thru June 1972...HQT XO (and all the jobs that went with that position, moving to A troop with Ralph Barber as troop commander for about 3 months and then to Adjutant for LT Col George Rostine for 18 months and closed out my tour in S3 with Cpt John Roseburg.

I seem to recall having a party at your apartment that included Black Russian drinks. I cannot remember all in attendance but, Tom Kreger, Bill Rounds come to mind.

Sue & I also hosted a couple Christmas parties at our APT in Fursetz.

Let me know if my memory is correct.
