LRRP Introduction

Post by LRPM75 »

I served with the 71st LRRP, D/Troop 17th Cav. 199th LIB. RVN 67/68. Also with M Company 75th Ranger, 199th LIB. RVN 69/70. After being wounded in 70 I was sent to Letterman Army Hospital in San Francisco 70/72.

I worked at San Francisco State and San Jose State in Veterans Services 73/82.
California Licensed Private Investigator and Security Consulant 83/11.
I'm a AK amputee, and work with amputees that have issues adjusting to their amputations. Or people who are facing the possibility of amputation.

Welcome Brother,

I've been in the P.I. business for about 14 years (mostly insurance fraud), but some other nice assignments as well. PM me if you want to chat and finally, thank you for your service.

The way I became a Ranger and have earned the small amount of success I have had in life has been mostly due to one quality - determination. Lefty.
