Thank you for this Welcome.

Did you make that jump in 1974 with 1st Batt where the SMG and his RTO entangled and died?

Best wishes,

Are you talking about Caro? I believe that was later than 1974.

Whatever improvements they made, two of my RIP classmates still met the same fate. For a while there we were calling Rock DZ, "Death DZ" or maybe the speedy 4's where calling it that to scare us cherries....

Sua Sponte Foundation is working with the 1/75 to locate next of kin in the Alaniz family...along with others who are missing bios on the 1/75 Ranger Memorial. Do you have any information that would help with this? Thanks.
