    Bloodroot

    So, here’s your open thread for the weekend – on the 40th anniversary of my enlistment. Yes, it was December 27, 1974 when I flew out of Syracuse Airport on route to Fort Polk, Louisiana where I spent the next 16 weeks being the most infantryman I could be.

    No the mustache isn’t regulation, but my drill sergeant, SFC Jason Hurst, (yes, I still remember his name) corrected me when I arrived at his platoon.

    Ex-PH2 asked for an open thread and she says that if you have spaces in your prayer list, send one out to Sparks this weekend. He’s fine, but he’s laid up for a few days.

    Don Shipley wants to have a photoshop contest using Bernath and Wittgenfeld as subjects. It’s all satire though. Send me your photoshopped pics and I’ll put them all in a post.

    Well, we finally got a request for an open thread and this time it comes from SJ with this photo. SJ says; This is MG Alexander R Bolling Jr. (COL in this pix). BG Bolling commanded the 3/82nd (ABN) (SEP) in the Phu Bai AO in ’68. Obit and another one here.

    Kerry whimpering

    No one asked for it, but here you go. If you’re emailing me, thanks, but Yahoo is only letting me see that you emailed me, they won’t let me read your mail. Funny how that happens every time they upgrade the damn thing. So I’m not ignoring you, I’m probably yelling cuss words because I can’t read it. Anyway, have a ball. Me & John Kerry will be over here whimpering.
