My intro

Post by fatmandu »

Greetings Rangers, Veterans and everone else.

I served as a ratt rig (radio teletype) operator in HHC 1/508th, 82nd from 1972 to 1975. Was just a one tour wonder stationed at Ft Bragg my entire time but I'm still proud of what I did.

I recognize some of the members here from several other sites I participate on.

First round is on me.

Elevate 'em and start pushing Hawk. The 508 is "Red Devils." 504 is "Devils in Baggy Pants."

BTW, I was in 2-508 1971 - 1974.
