Yes they were both there, Sonny went on to work Ranger Branch at DA, Calpena moved on, I am not sure where he went. He was in C Co with me for a while. I learned the Hand to Hand from MSG Max Mullins, he taught me and when he PCS'ed I took over.

Here is a link to my info that our cadets put on our University Web Page. Maybe some of you Rangers who went through in the early 90's will look at my photo and remember me putting you through your paces as you were earning your tabs. (Keep in mind I have lost some hair since then!)
