JCook22a.jpg"Base Camp" - Jan 1966; FDC Trailer brought over from Hawaii172 viewsCenter & Right: PFC Richard A. Williams & Sp4 Larry L. Black. They are shaving facing the FDC. We had been in-country from two to four days at this point. The FDC for "B" Battery was a 3/4-ton truck with generator. The FDC was known as the "Pink Kitty"; it was pink inside. It was made of plywood and brought over from Hawaii. See next photos for the progression of our FDC housing.
Our "wash area" is located where my right foot is.

Price_Reunion_8.jpgReunion Photos - Dave Price172 viewsVisit to the Ft Sill Museum: The FADAC - "Field Artillery Digital Analog Computer". It was the field artillery's first attempt to use a "computer" back in the 1960s for fire direction computation of deflection and quadrant elevation. It didn't prove itself at Ft Sill and neither in Vietnam. We were better with the training gained from spending weeks in Snow Hall.
