I've been meaning to tell you; I've seen a few soldiers walking around with 36th Combat Engineer Regiment (Rugged! Hu-ah!) SSI's.
I stopped and talked to a couple of them and talked up your website. Another unit I see around here (remember I'm at Al Asad) is the 36th Infantry Division.
Rocky I believe you have some experience with those guys as did the 540th. At least they were in the same theater. Speaking of Rocky, I also saw a guy with a 442nd patch.
Finally, Moose will find this interesting, there are a ton of 101st AB guys running around.
Not sure what they are doing here, but there are a lot of them. I think these must be from some 101st REMF brigade, but I'm not sure. There's not a whole lot of tip-of-the-spear infantry guys here on base.
Capt.0, the 36th Div. remembers the 151st Field artillery. At Salerno the 151st
kept the Krauts from pushing the 36th back off the beach. The 151st was a brigade
of the 34th Dvn. on assignment to the 36th for the Salerno invasion. Then the
34th and 36th made the Rapido river crossing. Strange to see the 442nd patch
over there. Rocky
