My Dad was a 13B there for an enlistment before joining and retiring in the guard later on. I'm trying to find out so I can get him a gift, but without asking him any questions that would spoil the surprise.

A good friend named Tim Nelson was in Bravo BTRY. I was a mechanic in Battalion Maintenance.

Try looking up the 5th Infantry Division Artillery. Namely: 3rd BN/19th FAR; 2nd BN/21st FAR; C Battery/21st FAR; H Battery/25th FAR; and Headquarters and Headquarters Battery of the 5th INF DIV Artillery. Those units may have been there in the mid 80's

Thank you SSG. All I've been able to find so far is 5-25 Field Artillery , but I think they moved there after he left.
