pillboxesghostKindly include me. US Army Field Artillery School (Ft. Sill, OK), 1968 to 1970.
My group trained "Chief of Section" (E5 that "ran" a 105 mm or 155 mm towed artillery piece).
Most of those guns were older than we were (WW2 vintage). I'm pretty sure they're no longer in service with the US military.

Pale HorseAnother amazing and very generous karma! Please enter me.
I spent 4 years active in the U.S.M.C. from 1997-2001. I got out before Sept 11 and never got called off inactive reserves so I spent my entire tour stateside. Which meant they had plenty of time for games like this day when our C.O. decided it would be good or us to spend the entire day in MOPP gear.
