    I went through Ft. Benning in Aug-Nov 1986 for Basic and Infantry School at A-10-2 in Harmony Church. After Infantry School I attended and graduated at the famed US Army Airborne School. I hope to come back one day to see where I went through to begin the biggest adventure of my life ever.

      @@youfuckmywife6719 Nope. He wasn't in A-10-2 Aug-Nov 1986. I can't find my Airborne School book right now. Never knew the guy because Airborne School had bigger classes I don't think we crossed paths.

      @@reddevilparatrooper Here is where the story gets funny . I went through A-10-2 in June 1983. My younger Brother went through A-10-2 in 1985. Fast Forward to March, 1987 I have a new Man in my Squad ; PV2 Ron Yee . He is 1/2 Chinese 1/2 African American Wearing a A-10-2 PT Shirt . We got along great ! We remained friends for years after we got out of the Army . He showed me a photo of his body-builder father . I showed him a photo of my Juice-Head Brother. I found out they were work out buddies. Harmony Church is now Basic Training For Armor And Cavalry.

      @@youfuckmywife6719 I was in 4th Platoon with Larabelle and Adams in 86. 1SG was Snape. I remember the other fucking insane Drill Sergeants like Thompson, Peters, Overman, Rogers, Strader, Jones, Tucker. The craziest was Philipps, he would fuck anyone who crossed his path. Senior Drill was Norfleet. He was the guy who avoided swearing like he would say "Dog on sucken hello Alpha Company! You are not motivated! I will dog sucken smoke y'alls!".

    Welcome to my home where I started my 8 years in the US Army in 2000, B co 2/47 ITR. I started the career of a UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter maintainer and crew chief at now Ft. Moore named after Hal Moore, I ended my career at Ft. Hood /Cavazos in 2008. FT. Benning was renamed after General Hal Moore the father of 227Avn Regiment of which I was assigned twice. One 2ID Korea, 3/227 Aviation Regiment second was being deployed to Iraq with the 1st Air Cav Div 3/227. I hold a deep appreciation as a disabled Iraq Combat Veteran and an heir along with countless others who've been a part of history.
