I was in “Swift Strike III” and ran all over South Carolina at the Georgia border. Had great times in those little beer bars in the small towns out in the middle of the bean fields. Great People!! Troops had greater times with the ladies! Especially those that headed for the sharecropper abodes.
Swift Strike III in 1963 - a sister unit returned with a semi trailer load of watermelons. An airborne unit jumped into a big watermelon field and the owner filed a claim and was reimbursed by the Army. Troops decided that since he had been paid for the crop, the watermelons belonged to the Army. LOL!
