Clovis, Pennington, and everyone else who has asked for copies. Here is the story on my Photo CD's. I took the original three CD's to Kinkos. Had them copied and sent them to Jim Carroll. He was suppose to re-copy and foward them to Mike to post on this site. The originals have been packed somewhere in about twenty boxes. i have not heard from Jim. If I can find them I'll let you all know.

I can't tell if i'm in that headquarters platoon picture at al jabar. I see harris and a few others but I can't remember that picture. If i wasn't in that picture i think i was doing my favorite past time. working party. McGehee, do you remember? I don't know if it was taken before they sent me on a 5 day trip to retrieve troops all over kuwait. that was lots more fun that sitting at al jabar. |

Riding on my 5 day working party on my 21st birthday through the city of kuwait while the rain poured down and the meathead who was in charge of the truck said he thought it wouldn't rain so he had discarded the top to the truck. I've been making up for that 21st birthday ever since.
OH, and then when I got back Lt Harris (then corporal Harris) gave me a real nice short haircut. probably the worst ever given to anyone throughout history. I guess he didn't like my 6 inch long hair. not my fault my hair grew so fast. |

He is a Capt, USMC, here at Quantico. Hey, I want to hear from everybody! Gershutz I want Frost's address--and I want to hear you sing some GNR. Let's get that next reunion rollin'! Errr... |

Hey brothers just thought I would drop you a line to say all is well and Kaufman that Taco Rice and Cheese is easy to make but the key is after you put the Taco Seasoning in you have to put chili powder in to I bet you didn't know that and it has to be shreded mild cheder cheese. As for this shit hole it has quited down quit a bit since last but it still has it's moments here and there it all depends on where you are. 3/7 is still getting into a lot of shit as usual Lima being the ass kickers. I was driving past Fallujha when they were pulling all the guys out but it looked like all the sand freaks were indoors, they know better than to come out. I know of a Marine sniper in that area that has 40 confirmed, NOW THAT MAKES ME FEEL REAL GOOD.My boys have been doing pretty good. We've made this place pretty hommie. We've built a Horse Shoe pit a basketball court from scratch, had a Marine get in a little trouble and had him build a volleyball court. All this helps them calm down a little when they come back in. We're building our own little MWR tent with some games, TV, book shelf we're even building a freaken ping pong table. It wasn't like when we hit the sand hell look we even got email now and phones can you believe that shit but it's all part to help them with this shit especially when they have to be here for so long. Well I have to get going I have to finish this damn book I'm reading it's killing me.

Hey Schindler whats the latest brother, sort of spooky when you don't check in as often as we would like. Hope all is well with you, every time you sound off a few days later the shit seems to hit the fan over there....sounds like some serious trade offs going on over there...please update us.
PS: me and my co workers are in full production for the summer tourist season, but we are putting a care package together for you, what can you use besides smokes, chew and chocolate,
anything you can use personally or to pass on to the boys! Let me know bro, before I am broke again.!!

Just wanted to say that another Task Force Grizzly Brother has been Located. I was working out in the Gym at my unit and the Battalion Chaplain walks by, At that moment We both recognized eachother. The Chaplain is Navy Lt Harris. who used to be Cpl Harris with 3rd herd and I think he was with Head Quarters for a while. Seeing him made my day and knowing that we are in the same unit again is awesome. It is a small Corps Gents and I am proud to be part of it. I showed Lt Harris the TFG web sight and told him about the reunion and he was in awe over it all. Can't wait to touch base with him again and go over some old times.

I needed some humor so John Snell provided me with this:
I never worried about the beer shits--I just figured that they were
cleaning
out the residue from all those MRE's. You remember the scene: You
spend
two weeks in the field (or more if it was CAX), eating nothing but
MRE's and
pogey bait, mostly drinking straight water or cool-aid. I personally
went
for the cool-aid or gatoraid, but that black moss was awful hard to
clean
out of a canteen. Well, you get back and do all the bullshit so you
can go
on libo, and hopefully you've already started on the beer. A couple of
those beers seemed to work some kind of MRE synergistic hell-magic, and
you
had to SHIT (Super-Heavyweight-Intense-Toiletpunishment). Do you
remember
the smell? Nothing else like it on earth. No sir. Sometimes those
MRE/Beer shits would not go down without a fight, either. OOOOOOOH
baby. .
. I know you miss those days. |

Carrol: I would rather have it in the winter months. It's damn cold in Iowa in the winter and would love to go someplace warm. I vote for Feb - March.
Schindler: Glad to hear you are doing OK. Thank you for the updates. Media around here just says Marines are in action again, won't specify units. We can only get this info through the message boards.
Jeremy: You are right. There seems to be alot of people going through their daily routines that don't think about the war. The few that do voice their thoughts are anti-war. My opinion, although we have lost a lot of lives, if the U.S. Pulls out we lost a lot of lives for nothing. That pisses me off even more. I would rather send more troops and install a stable gov., than have to do this all over again in 12 years.
Schindler: You stay safe and we will see you at the next reunion. |

I haven't been sleeping at all since all this crap started. I slept more in the gulf war than I am now. I can't help but look at people when I go out to restaurants and they look as though nothing is happening when my mind is constantly on Iraq and the Marines in danger. I did read a good article on how the USMC snipers are getting lots of work done. It's good to see the Marines taking care of business after so many months of this crap. I pray this all ends soon so we can welcome them home like we were welcomed home in 91. |

Well brothers I thought I would drop you a line and say hello but this comes with a heavy weight. As you seen by the news that 5 Marines were lost on the boarder of Syria they are in a city called Al Qaim that's where 3/7 is. The 5 lost were from Lima Co. A plt of Force Recon Marines got ingaged all friends of mine and the React Force from Lima got involved in the fight it lasted 12 hours a lot of Marines wounded and 5 KIA all from Lima. Lima has been in contact more than any unit in that area. They have lost quite a few and even more wounded actually alot. The thing that gets to me is my ties with 3/7 not only was we all in that unit years ago I also have my best friend there as the 1stSgt of India Co another one of my Recon buddies is the 1stSgt of WPNS. The Force Recon Plt that is working that area are all good friends of mine and they are in the mix of it as well. Also I almost got to be a 1stSgt in 3/7 but missed that oppurtunity by a week. As for our area it has slowed down a bit due to the fighting that the Marines here laid to them 2 weeks ago. The intel we get tells us that they are scared shitless of the Marines and are moving to Army areas to fight them because we killed so many of them. We came here with the 1stMarDiv motto of no best friend no worse enemy, well they lost there best friend and now there worst enemy is hunting them down like dogs. They tried to hit 2/4 but they laid waste to the enemy like nothing they had seen before and I know 3/7 is doing the same in there AO. I have seen to many memorials since I arrived here but with losses that we have sustained it's a small number as to the dead enemy laying in the streets. I wish you all well, kiss your kids at night and never forget the brothers that have sacrafised past and present to allow them to sleep in peace.

5 Marines reported killed in action on the Syrian border, filed by a reporter from the St Louis Dispatch. The unit is not named, but this may very well be our guys. |

I have to agree with Ditto. Scheduling near/on a regular holiday should make it easier to get the time off, etc. . . I personally have no preference on what holiday. I can take whatever time I need as long as I have a little notice. Whatever we can do to make it easier for the guys who will have a hard time getting there is okay with me.
By the way, that article on Lima was something else. I'm passing it out all over the place here at work. |

Jim,
Whatever the time and place I'll be there, but might I suggest the reunion span a holiday weekend such as 4th of July or Memorial Day? This would present its own unique conveniences and inconveniences but might weign in a a good choice. THanks for being on the ball. |

I need to begin getting feedback from you peeps on what you are expecting. Busch Gardens is REALLY close. Universal Studios is closer. That rich rat is a hop skip and jump away. We are going to be staying IN Tampa/St Petersburg area. Because of room rate, and local. Awaiting feedback. |
