Hello Lee, I worked at BnHq with classified material. Spent lots of time in a jeep running back and forth to main side and living in a cage at the Hq. Bldg. Lived in the squad bay across the road from the motor pool. Deployed to Taiwan for Operation Blue Star. Was in Platoon 349 which was the first in 3 years to qualify 100% at the range. Shot intermurals with the Bn rifle team for a couple of years.
