Comments: One day an officer (I think he was an officer ) drove up to our position in a jeep,jumped out, ran up to our Tank asking for a loader.

He looked at me and said, "you soldier, load for me. I did. We fired at a armoured vehicle that had pulled into position to fire on us.

We destroyed it, he quickly got back in his jeep and was gone. Just curious to know him.

Keywords: On a hill around the "Punchbowl" sometime in 1952 or 53.

It gives an account of stateside training, the replacement pipeline,training and R&R in Japan,and the conversion of a National Guard Division into a combat tested Regular Army Division led By Regular Army Airborne Commanders.Also included is an account of a revisit to the same combat areas in Sept 1998.
