“Fort Riley, KS that the last order given by General CUSTER as he departed for the Little Big Horn was: “Don’t change a THING until I get back!” That order was followed to the letter....”

I visited Fort Riley many years ago. I went there for dinner. I did see some wonderful historical buildings but didn’t see the family area. At that time… was it the 9th?…that was heading out to Vietnam. It was a very tense atmosphere.

I used to be stationed with the 9th ID and for Vietnam it was located at Fort Lewis, WA. You're thinking of the 1st ID aka The Big ... Red .... One.
