Welcome from Florida.
My Garand is a Springfield that dates to March 1945, and my Carbine is an Inland.

Welcome from N.E. Florida.

Great to see you back up!!

To me, a "flashback" is different than a memory, and what the VA terms "intrusive thoughts".
Dan (above) had what I would consider a flashback. I have never had one of those, a sort of out-of-body...

Very nice! My Army Brigade in Vietnam was on loan to the 3rd Marine Division and I was able to get a Camillus made Kabar. The leather grip was blackened, and the leather sheath was black also. I left...

Nickname was Big Al, I guess because I was 6'3" and my last name is Allen.
I wish I still had a 32" waist.:)

Ahhhh, Fort Carson. I did time there with the 46th Field Artillery Group. We were down in the old wood barracks by the back gate. Our motor pool was the last one before the gate, in fact.
Too darn...

It was the multi-tool of it's era.

I was just a Spec 5.

Welcome Home.

If memory is correct, that would have been 5/4 Artillery. I was in the 75th Support Batalion, 1st Bde, 5th Infantry Div.
Camp Red Devil, and Quang Tri Combat Base.

The best meal I had was at the...

We were in the old wood barracks on one of the last company streets before the back gate to Fountain. Our motor pool was the last, or maybe second to last, one before the gate.
Too darn cold for a...

Nick - the Fifth Division website has extensive records relating to Lam Son 719. Glancing thru the Combat After Action Report there are numerous references to 3-5, the entry for 11 Feb has D/3-5...
