35 Years Ago

We were really glad this Apache did not light us up. For a few months we just moved around digging fighting positions where they told us to. Then for 4-5 weeks it was a bomb and scud war. Then for 100 hours it was tracks and boots on the ground. Then two months of blowing Iraqi equipment up. Then back to Germany. It was a quick 7 months, but I won't ever forget it, or the two young men Bravo company lost. Please don't forget it happened.

Friendly fire was a real threat in that war! I was 17 when it happened and I couldn’t get out of school and into the Corps fast enough. Alas, we kicked their ass too fast. I had to wait to see “action”. Dumb kid…
