The Mighty Ninth

Strive To Reach The Summit

LZ Lois - Christmas, 1969
"Cruit", center of photo, always wore his airborne wings.  Came to the battery from the infantry as a gun bunny, wanted to be FDC and we were getting really short so he came onboard.  I captioned this on the slide as "Cruit finds a girl his own size".  No matter how much we picked on him, Cruit was always smiling and happy-go-lucky.

Note the "hippie" headband and long, straight hair on the chick.  Boy, we didn't know what was waiting down the road for us, eh?
