I remember you !
I got assigned to Bn S-2 just days after arriving in Camp Casey in June of 1965.
I made E4 before going home in June of 1966. Lots of Cheeseburger, Fries and PBR.
I was in Battalion S-2 from June of 65 to June of 66 along with Lt. Maurice T Lough, and Lt. Charles Matrosic and Msgt Jimmy Bearden. Msgt, Robert Kennedy took over from Bearden when he rotated home. 1st LT Lough went to 7th Div. Hq. as Generals Aide de Camp.
One of my jobs was to type up all of the paperwork to be submitted for security clearances for anyone in the Battalion who would be handling Classified Documents.
What ever happened to Lt. Hornbarger ? Lt. Fred Shepard or Lt Thomas T. (Tadoshi) Murai ? Major Roger Blunt ?
Wasn't your nickname 'Chopper"
..All of you LT's played a lot of Volleyball back then. I think Lt. Hornbarger played Tennis too. Lt. Fred Shepard was a PFC in Ft. Sill before going to OCS. PFC Reesberg from S-3 was in his unit back in Ft. Sill. and remembered him from the old days. Shepard still had his PFC Uniforms with him in Camp Casey. There are Some Funny Stories There ! What time should we send the jeep to get you SIR ? You had to be there to appreciate the humor in all of that !! GOOd Times, lots of laughs too !
I ran into our 13th Engr. Battalion Sgt/Major Lacey Hendricks back in Ft. Leonard in early 1966. He was a Great Guy ! The HHC Company Clerk Sp4 Noe eventually showed in in FLW too. Old "Pineapple John "SSgt John Menor from our Bn. Recon section died in Ft. Bragg a couple years ago. He was like 83-84 years old !
Lt Col. Harvey C. Jones joined the 13th Engr Bn Association maybe 4 ?? years ago from South Carolina and died sometime in the last 2 years.
None of us would recognize Camp Casey today. Our Battalion HQ was knocked down years ago and it is now a parking lot ! The motor pool is still there !
I finished out my tour of duty in 1967 with the 208th MP Company watching Prisoners in the FLW Stockade. Thats all gone now. Today its a 4 story brick apartment building.
It's nice to finally see and hear from someone from the 13th Engr Bn I remember from so many years ago

Served in battalion April ‘65 to May ‘66. Platoon leader in C company for 2 months, then ADM platoon Cmdr. For 9 months and HHC company Cmdr for 2 months before rotation back to USA.

During that time. Cordially yours, Bob
Served in B Co as a heavy equipment operator in 62-63. This was my first duty station after AIT. During that time B Co moved north. I do not remember the name of the camp. I did work on the road from which you could see the Chosin Reservoir in North Korea.
Miss everyone always

Well, I felt it was time to make it "official" and sign the guest book. Actually, I am a member, but I wanted to send greetings to all - especially with the two holiday seasons coming up. Wishing all of you warm and happy Thanksgiving and a very Merry Christmas!
