I appreciate all of my experiences in the Corps; the good, the not so good and the down right detestable; all of which have shaped me into the awesome person I am today.

Sgt Tammy Wallace. Thank you for your comment. It is said that "Truth is stranger than fiction" and we who have been military know that better than anyone else. By the way, is Wallace a married or single name? During the last few years, I have discovered that I have more relatives than I realized. Thank you again, "cousin".

After seeing a pretty girl with the name of Wallace, I just knew it had to be your given (born) name and you are single. All of us Wallace's have the "good looking genes" in our blood. Well, at least the females. hehehe. Thanks for replying, Cuz.

It will be an experience that I will never forget as long as I live! Bravo, 1/3, Cam Lo, Quang Tri Province, South Vietnam, August 1969.

PO3 Bob McCord - Didn't see the sign I was looking for. The closest one was the GI firing at the VC. I remember that one and the one posted over the 162nd Airborne Bde. None of the others looked familiar. Thank you for looking and if I find it, I'll post a photo for you. Thinking about it now, it could be it was too insensitive to our current society. Have a great weekend.

PO3 Bob McCord - I run a dairy goat operation. There's a little market for the male kids as pets and 4H projects. So the majority (45-60 a year) get butchered or go to the freezer or the smokehouse. The older goats that are culled from the herd I make in artisanal sausage. It's a nice sideline revenue for me. I like venison, but goat meat is more mild-flavored, more tender and comparable to lamb, while meat from older goats is tougher and has a stronger taste.
