If you see someone on this list you knew, contact me, I may have their email address. The page lists chronologically (approx in some cases) by the year we were assigned, and by unit, the names of our buddies we remember who served with us.  If you would like to be added to the list, or can add some other names please let me know Carl Erickson. 
Hope this brings back some memories.
