I was in the S2 section and I Troop. Serving in 3rd squadron was the best duty in my military carrer. I drove for 1SG Daniels, and we went all over the Czech border. The border experence helped when I was deployed to Iraq in 2003. 3rd Squadron was my very first assignment after basic training.I served from 1981 to 1983. I was in the S2 section and I Troop.

I remember all of the drills on the border; the sense of urgency, but we knew exactly what we were supposed to do and how much time we had to get it done. I remember how tense things seemed right before the Chech border opened. I also remember the very short length of time between the wall opening and the time when it was clear to us that we would finally see some action in Desert Shield later to be called Desert Storm. We were just waiting for the order which did eventually arrive. It was long ago, but a lot of memories have survived. K-Trp 3/2 ACR “Always Ready” January 1989 – January 1992.

I was stationed in Amberg from 87 to 92. Had the honor of border patrol and Operation Desert Storm. Your little story brought back some memories thats for sure. Glad to see the troopers soaking up some history that I was part of.

Cruz) from March 82 - July 84. I to have many fond memories of the "Grenze", also some bad, we lost three troopers in winter of 83-84. Seems like yesterday, not 26 years ago.
