I talked to my friend Rich K last night about his 69-70 tour. He said he wouldn't talk about it until his trip to a renunion in DC and a visit to THE WALL four years ago. He was a Ranger in the 5th Infantry and later assigned as a leader in the G Co Rangers and did Recon in Laos and Cambodia. He can always find humor through his cynical mind. When he came home in one piece he joined the Reserves and on one weekend trip to a training exercise he was agitated by a group of "Dope Smokin Maggot Infested" protesters near Humboldt State here in Humboldt County. As the convoy passed this group on the return trip Rich stood up and emptied his AR at them. It seems he had not turned in all his blanks.

A few weeks later he became a qudriplegic due to a auto accident on his way to a Reserve meeting. He fought the VA for full benefits and He was able to continue teaching a HS auto shop class untill his retirement 2 years ago...

Thank You for your Service...
