Doug,
Is there anyway we can post something that will appear on all Commands? I am not
sure if just posting on the Cold War Veterans is getting read by everyone. Since some of my
posts are not directly related to the Cold War.

Doug, I hope the group I created "enlisted mess" is within your guide lines. There just seemed to be a need for a general group(command) for everyone. If not, I understand. Thanks, Jim Decota
Thanks to you too...I will get around to setting up my account in a few days...but glad to be aboard...Old Goats never die, they just get tougher...How bout Navy vs Army, hell of a game...
Its and honor to be aboard. Happy Thanksgiving to all.
Or am I just not looking at things correctly, it seems to me that a post only shows up on whichever command you are at, and not everybody would be able to read it.

I know there are many more like me out there that not only miss the experience and memories of the days they wore their dress blues! But, yearn to recapture and revisit those formative years. Most of us were teens when we signed up and were still young when we left! Oh, if we only knew then what we know now!
I want to be clear that I was never actually IN Vietnam. I was on Guam during the conflict and that makes me a Vietnam era Vet. Most of what I did on Guam had to do with the war. But I never want to claim that I went through what the guys who actually went there did.
Thanks,
Wayne Devoll
