As I like to say, I spent my time drinking beer and chasing Frauleins. Pretty much summed up my military career as a treadhead in the Pearhead Division (3rd AD).

I was a slacker Reservist. I always laughed when they called W a phony. Flyboys always went to meetings.

Spent the summer of 79 as the XO of an Admin/Log detachment at Todendorf. We were the only Americans for 200 miles.

We were novelties, my troops didn't have to do any chasing. The large concentration of newly divorced women on vacation were drawn to them.
