I arrived at C-Trp April 72 while we were in Augsburg. We moved the troop to Boeblingen in June. I was a scout in 3rd platoon, however, from Sept 72-Aug 73 I was the "First Cook" then returned to the 3rd platoon. We traded in our M114 Scout Vehicles after returning from the Check border and transitioned into M551 Sheridans. I left the Cav in Dec 74 and did another tour in Germany, Colorado, Virginia before being medically retired in 1985. I would love to here from former comrads.
