By your handle I think you must have served in the artillery

'53 to '61 in the U.S.Army Reserve, which is to say, after Korea and before Vietnam. I trained the whole time, with the 11th Airborne, 3rd Armored and 3rd and 80th Infantry Divisions, on M1A1 Pack 75mm, M52 SP 105mm and M114 towed 155mm howitzers. I never fired a shot in anger. I never went overseas.

55-58 Regular army, AAA 90mm guns. Too late for Korea and too early for vietnam. We wern't mad at anybody. Of course we didn't know if the russians were going to come through the Fulda Gap, and I would have found myself in their way. Oh yeah 25 years in the ANG.
