I spent 75 thru 77 there, had a lot of fun. Smoked a ton of weed that we brought over from Mexico. Most of the guys i knew from Majors to privates were pot heads. The captain of the mps was the biggest coke dealer around! Lots of the mps road with the Banditos. I road with them for a short time but i got married and my wife decided i should probably stop.
I just remembered that my dad was stationed here for a short time during ww2. QUESTION: what is it meant when a soldier is placed on "inactive duty". My dad became 40% disabled in combat at the start of ww2 while in Germany. For some reason, maybe because he was an officer (1st Leut) the Army would not discharge him and let him go home. Instead the bounced him all over the USA to different installations till the end of the war. What would an officer 40% disabled actually be doing? What kind of work? Funny he never actually said what he was doing at all these places.
What about the concrete and rebar in the ground? Where did the oxygen and gas come from to cut this down come from? Was that diesel powered equipment being used to remove this piece of crap! Was it made in china like your new ones are? What is used to melt this down? Fossil fuels!!! You people will answer to our maker someday! May God have mercy!
@@robertpalmer3166 it’s more fun the having to plug a damn electric car in! And a produces fertilizer and mows your yard! You do what you want but i don’t like wasting good land for a wind farm or solar! We have to eat and breathe!
I enlisted in the Army, basiic in El Paso, AIT and permanent party Ft Huachuca. There I was "transferred over to ASA" and was sent to Vietnam. 1967 to 1970. I felt honored to be transferred to the ASA, receiving a TS Clearance, w/crypto, as the personnel in Vietnam were (as in Vietnam wide) were very dedicated to the Vietnam war. Not familiar with ASA I learned unit info about ASA there. A very secretive organization at the time. It took many years after being discharged, to learn about what the ASA in Vietnam and the various units occupying the country. I never used theTS/ crypto clearances never again. I did not feel safe in country even in the larger cities. But I am happy I served in the ASA.
Great video thanks! My late father was stationed there in the early 70s after his 3 tours in Vietnam,and I have many fond memories of our time there. I went to the 3rd through 6th grade there and we did a lot of hiking in the mountains and desert around the base. Dad was in CEEIA there and I still remember the orange and white unit patch painted on the mountain.
