Did a 2 month rotation at JSA back in '99 for a special assignment related to the Y2K supposed scare, although we all know nothing came from it, but they had many units, especially MPs and MI on special assignments left and right for months leading up to January 1st.

It was so much dog and pony show, any real Soldiers were amazed that we didn't have the old school silver helmet liners along with our dress blues at the time.

Camp Casey was the closest assignment I had. I have been there three times.

I was station with the Cav 2 different times at 3 camps back in the 80's. Then a contractor in Korea from 91-00. Since 1983, seen quite a bit of the DMZ, especially the old 11 mile stretch we had to patrol besides OPs and GPs up there. Plus we use to go to several ranges back then.

For those that don't know, the last American sector was turned over to the ROK's in the late summer of 1991.

2ID has been the only standing Division there since the early 70's, 40 years!

Camp Garry Owen, 88-89 17th Cav. Wife came over as a volunteer for my last 7 months and served with the 3rd Brigade Chaplains office and with the Commander. I was the Camp TOC NCOIC for the last 6 months. We also were very active with a local orphanage. Both of us had been on the border, what a great year, it changed our lives.
