I remember the first Comm Relay I went on... 3 of us went up to this hill and dug in; the first night we heard a ruckus, bottles clanging and some cursing and laughing in English; Rob Huffman and Marty Jensen stumbled into camp with a case of Romer Pills, we had to ensure all of the contraband was eliminated; extreme headache in the morning. That was a great welcome to GLCM. Hey has anyone heard from A-Bomb, Bean Flip, Zak Attack lately? don_korea@hotmail.com Also can't figure out how to get added to the Reunion list.

I remember one time being deployed during the winter months. Digging was slow since the ground was frozen, but the worst part of it was the cold. Right behind our foxhole was a tent that was never used and I thought it was the warm-up tent that we had brought with us. Inside were some chairs and a propane heater with an open face burner on it. I would burn my knees and hands, then turn around and burn my back. I went there off-and-on for 4days before I realized that this wasn't the warm-up tent at all, just the command tent. I finally found the warm-up tent and did my best to get warm. I tried adding a little kerosene to the coal stove and accidentally started someone's towel on fire. Fire shot out of the stove pipe and it lit up the camp for a second. Oops. I never could get warm enough to stop the shaking.
