Welcome Back, Brother Carl, and more importantly,

Welcome Home !!!

Hope this finds you completely retreaded, invigorated and full o' piss and vinegar.

We ain't met yet, ah b'leeve. I'm Tom Lumpkin, a new guy, been "here" only a few weeks...worked in 119th Avionics, Jan-Dec '70, then PFC thru SP5, now SFC retired, and "surviving" in Virginia.

There are at least a dozen Gators out here, most within an hour of my place, some within fifteen minutes, (and Tom Frankenfield, about two hours)...

We're gonna have a "mini" reunion soon, we hope.

When was your tour, and .... ?? Altho I've read ALL the posts here, I don't recall a lot of it (old age, and late hours).. if ya wanna, tell us
"newbies" (there are several) a little 'bout y'self..?

Like Pickett, I'm from East Texas, just a short-short from Hueys place, and really looking forward to THE PARTY. Hope to meet you there.
