Dixon4.JPGMy Uniform186 viewsHere is my uniform with 2/9th shields on the epaulets and BOTH 25th division & 4th division patches due to the fact the 3rd Bde, 25th ID spent so much time in 4th Div territory (and 3rd of 4th spent so much time in the 25th area) they simply swapped during the time I was there {1Aug67}. The specialty braid in red is not exactly correct for me since I was a Signal Corps guy (which was orange) but I was told by my CO to wear the red braid in honor of our artillery unit rather than my training. They made me remove the orange braid.

I save everything- girl's phone numbers... in fact their "numbers" (you had to be there to know what this means). I even saved my plane ticket and the Baht envelopes of money I got at Tommie's Tourist Agency!
