Hi, my name is Brian, and I've been posting here for a while in obeyance of all the rules, and I asked the Admins to change my username as I didn't want anyone to confuse me with that bastion of hippy liberalism in Kalifornia

(that and I thought it would be a good idea not to use my last name as my username).

FireFinder was the type of radar system that was my MOS during AD.

Ranger Mitch, that picture was taken in Rhode Island in 1986 while waiting to board the C-130 for a flight back to Ft. Bragg after the Rhode Island Special Forces National Guard Invitation Parachute Competition. I'm looking back at some of the guys playing with "Airborne Gumby" which was a Gumby doll attached to the chute out of a parachute flare. His buddy Pokey was lost over All-American DZ at Bragg earlier that summer.

I'll see if I can find the time to scan a pic of "Airborne Gumby" and post it here.

Welcome Hippy. Gentlemen, I met this man over a burger on my way back home down I-5 one day from Ft. Lewis. I can attest that he is one of us. Well, he talked a mean game, although those Birkenstocks, Tie-Dye t-shirt and the soy burger he ordered threw me off a bit.

Hahaha, thats pretty funny. I do own a couple of pairs of Birkenstocks, they are adequate camo for outings amongst the mud-hut-dwelling anarchists that emigrate here from Kalifornia. The only Soy-anything I've ever eaten was in Miso Soup. I've not had any tie-dye since I bought an INXS concert T-shirt in Fayetteville in 1986. :D

I owe you one for picking up the tab at Carl's Jr.

Couldn't you have come up with a more imagative name, perhaps like, "Blip" or ......... jes kidding Brian. I was wondering who was using your Avatar as of late and with over 200 posts. Sheeeeeeet, FireFinder is a good name my friend. FireFinder it shall be!
