atb Posted September 2, 2022 Share #128 Posted September 2, 2022 Okinawa Summer 1970, 30th Artillery Brigade. HHB sign and my own Change of Command ceremony at the brigade HQ sign. On it are the DUIs for the 1st Artillery, the 3rd Artillery, and the brigade DUI and SSI. Starched fatigues, a nice shine on the boots, and, oh those eye glasses. We still had the shiny belt buckle, and I had replaced the dorky Army-issue hot weather cap with a locally-made one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvage Sailor Posted October 2, 2022 Share #135 Posted October 2, 2022 So, why am I posting these photos on this topic? Could it be this guy who is on duty? ...or the Duty Sergeant who is goofing off with their mascot? ...perhaps it's the Sarge's buddies in civvies - they look like payday loan sharks or maybe it's these doggies, who have no money til payday and have to hang at the barracks with the cook except for the guy on the right who never drinks or chases women and always has money at the end of the month Nope It was this guy and I WANT HIS GUITAR 35th 'Cacti' Infantry Regiment, Schofield Barracks, T.H. 1930 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
