Frenchie,
This is Styron Lemons. Man, it is so cool to read your posting. You live in Little Rock, correct. I remember Norcross, was he a trip or what. I remember the blue room, bong time. I took Patronskys' place as S-3 Bn Clerk. Top Barker was my boss also. Slater was, well better not say. As for the Sexy, wild. I really did enjoy my time with the 2/92. I was there from 1972 till Oct. 1974, ETS time. Remember Monty and Susie Chambers? I lived with them for quite a while with a girl from Calif. Keep us posted with the latest. So good to hear from you.

I just now found this site and I am posting to an old message but may be it will still find its way back to the original posters. I was in A battery 2/92 from 67-69. When I left I was Chief of Section for the 2nd section. Some of the guys that I served with were CO Captain Hammer, Sgt Frank Caulder, Sgt John Hancock, Sgt Joe (Fergy) Ferguson, Sp4 Earnie Fargo, Sp4 Philip (Peppy) Keplinger, Pfc Alton Clark, Pfc Bill Mason, 1rst Sgt "The Stick man" Williams, Lt Col Perin was the Bn Commander. If any one remembers me or any of these other Red Devils please let me know. I would love to hear from you. thingy Williamson

I was stationed at Rivers Barracks (aka:The Zoo) from 1972 to 1974 in the Commo Section (RATT) of HHB 2/92. Then, in late 1974, I went over to the HHB 42D FA GP Commo Section until 1976, when I was sent to a Signal Company at Fort Polk, La. I returned to HHB 42D FA GP 9 months later after wheeling and dealing with personnel at Fort Polk. (No one wanted to be stationed at Fort Polk back then!)
Anyway, after returning to Germany, I spent from the latter part of 1976 until May 1981 with HHB 42D FA GP at the Giessen Army Depot. In May 1981 I was sent to the 303D MI BN at Fort Hood, Tx. I left the Army 28 November 1982. (My sequence number came up for E-7 and I was on levee to go to Korea at that time. I turned down the E-7 stripe and wouldn't extend to make the levee ... and got out of the Army to go into law enforcement in civilian life.)
Presently, I work for a DOD contract company that is making mortar increments, Abrams tank rounds ... and, of all things ... M231 and M232 Artillery charges (MACS), here in the desert of southern California. (I neutralize the scrap leftover from the parts they make.)
I'll be leaving California in a month or so and be moving to Montana for good.

I forgot to mention that while I was assigned to HHB 2/92 ... I was sent over to the MARS station (AE1CJX) to take over from SSG Clyde Johnson (who was assigned to the 6/9th or the 3/79th at the time). The MARS station was located in the Milvan trailer located between the snackbar building and another building. I used to run phone patches back to the states for a lot of guys that were stationed on Rivers Barracks. For those that did make calls back to the states ... you probably remember the station. There was a log periodic beam sitting on top of a 50-foot tower which "stood out" on the compound.
SSG Johnson and I were ham radio operators prior to comming into the military, so that is how we managed to get "stuck" in such a "cushy job" for a while. Yeah, no regular FTX's or any of that stuff ... just had to go to GRAF with the unit. (No one got out of going to GRAF, not even the MARS operators.) Anyway, for those that may have known SSG Clyde Johnson ... he passed-away in 2004 in Sanford, North Carolina, where he retired. He and I continued with ham radio over the years and could keep up with where one another was at.
The MARS station at Rivers Barracks was later set on fire by someone in the middle of the night (don't recall exactly when that happened ...latter part of 1974, I think) and that ended MARS operations in Giessen until another station was opened in the MP building at the Giessen Army Depot, near the HHB 42D FA GP barracks. I had no part of the second MARS station ... I had lost all of my personal ham radio equipment in the fire ... along with the military radios that were in the station at Rivers Barracks.

We have been out gook-ed by china..d**n. 4 strokes and the doctors still haven't killed me yet. Remember when Hause and Gibbens dumped that hydraulic system at 02:45 and the gun went straight into the well. "Red" doo doo'd cause i was the one that went in there and turned the valve closed, they try'd to hand pump pressure back. Oh Yea, they were just breaking the final drives to tow the thing...72 thru 74.
