The Company Christmas party in 1978. It was held at the C Company motor pool.  In the background, from left to right, are:
Harry-O (don't have a clue as to his real name), Joy McNair, Dee Chadwick, Sgt. Casias, "Oliver," Dave Sherer, & in the far right hand corner there's Sgt. Casias's little girls.



In the foreground are:
Andy Ross & Debbie Yaw, the back of Paul Hunter's head, Rayanne Wolcott, Scott Howlett, & Don Davis.


 


Captain Thomas McKenzie, who was captain of C Company for most of my time there (78-80). He was replaced by Capt. Stan Ford, I believe.


1st Sgt. Gilmore, who arrived in Charlie Co about the same time I did (summer of 78). With him is Taylor.


 


Mike Wolff (RATT) and Betty (BJ) Kemp (worked at Battalion Headquarters) at John's with the seemingly immortal Kitty in the background.

 



George Long & Mike(?) Lincoln was taken in June 1979 at the C Co party up at the motor pool.


 


Lauri Edwards around 1979. She was a roommate of Patty Reilly & Dorothy Vivo.


Lucy Denny is from 1978/79. She's all dressed up for guard duty. Like the rustic conditions of my room on the women's 4th floor?
