Larry:
Just checking in. I was in Chu Lai March 67 to April 68. MAG 13. I do remember a lot of the guys from then. I was there when MAG 12 came over and was kind of absorbed into 13. 12 had the A4's and were flying off the beach before they came over to 13. When I first got there, we had no field lights and it was part of our job to fill the smudge pots and keep them lit through the night. I remember some rainy nights when that was tough duty. I am sure there are others who remember the smudge pots.

Larry, I'm into history in a big way, so...in what year did the Corps change the MOS designation from 6461 to 7051?
Thanks!...Stretch

Hey all, I went to the new school at Goodfellow AFB Texas '95-'96, MCAS Futenma '96-97, 29 Palms '97-99 then out, then K-Bay after 9-11, '01-02. Now out again currently a Fire Apparatus Engineer with Kali-fornia. I got a membership form to the AFFR but it is dated 2003 is it still current? should I mail it to Oscar Shaw in Vernon FL, or what
I am also wondering if there are any youngsters kickin' around here, under who might have served with me in the 90s Thanks Joshpae "YOSH THE GYPSY"White
