Logistics has always been good to & for me. From camping w/family to HS, I was always a loggie in training. At Ft Lee, I excelled at every module, top of the class, and learned to be a school-trained armorer with the M1911A1, the M16A1, the M60, the M203, and the M2. The school armorer, a dead-lookalike to James Garner, also had some M14s, but didn't let me touch them because "I'd never find them in the Army these days." He was wrong... Two weeks before graduation, two NCOs came down from Ft Myer, VA looking for two excellent students and I was one of the two selected for The Old Guard, 3d US Infantry. I could have gone to Germany and been close to my father's family in Denmark, but DC was a more interesting assignment.

Part-time student. The less said, the better. Horny-time in mixed barracks. That is all. Reclassed to 76Y and shipped to Ft Lee.
