| Comments: | I was the AC for Outlaw 18 when I finished my Mar 70 to Mar 71 tour. I posted close to 400 photos taken during my tour on Flickr. Google 175th AHC Outlaws for the link. There are lots of folks I can not recall from 40 years ago, so feel free to comment and add names to many of them. Photos of OL24 AFTER its bad night; Mavericks AFTER the retrograde ammo point blew up; Tommy Ivey, who had been my crewchief for a while; the Maverick Stand Down, etc. A lot of First Platoon Outlaws!
I hope you have a wonderful reunion! OUTLAWS RULE!

| Comments: | Outlaws, I have been meaning to send you some OUTLAWS hats (175th) for the silent auction coming up in Savanna Ga. I now have to find the mail letter with the request and address to send them.
I am retired now and have talked to Ivey about going to the reunion. There is one problem now, I am sitting in the hospital waiting on preparations for heart issues. If I do go it, I will drive down to Ga.
Tony OUTLAW 26 (71-72). |
