Hi Rick,

Served with 4.2 Motar Regiment 3-9 1955/56 on Okinawa, Thailand and Japan as FO/RTO. Probably met some of y our buddies that stayed in after KW. Do you remember the AN/GR-9 HF Transceiver; had to hand crank when transmitting? Spent lots of time FMF on many ships in a short span of time. Semper Fi.
