No 3 is Squeegie Normandin.  Picture taken not long before he passed away.  No 5 is Ernie Baxter.  Note that Squeegie had put on a pound or two since his battalion days.  RT

You are right, Jim, maybe I have a future in the ID business!

I just thought that no one was going to get the pair--and I did want for Squeegie's name to come up on the board.  Best wishes, RT

Hi Moe..how could I ever forget the 7ups or that crappy exercise when we had to sleep in the swamp. 7ups was what we called our section because every time we advanced to contact, the pl comd, Dougie Palmer would alwys put 7 sec up. He didnt want to get in trouble with Barry Glover...I see you went on to do well in your career, I knew you would.
