NWI INGO General Post - Part 12

[CTC B4Z]

My lucky number. On the thirteenth of June 1974, I jumped into Hargetts Drop Zone at Camp Lagune SC for Operation Bold Eagle. I was the thirteenth man in the stick on the thirteenth plane of the mass tactical. It was my thirteenth jump. It turned out to be a very uneventful jump.

It was a Thursday.

For the life if me I can't figure why I recall that so vivedly.

How long where you at Lagune?

Gfs uncle was there probably at the same time. He got a letter from the govt saying to get screened for cancer. Sure enough, he had prostate cancer with record numbers.

They said everyone that was there had cancer. Due to the water supply

No No. This is awesome weather! Maybe a little dryer, but I would be happy if it never got any warmer. You'll get used to it.

Warn and dry motorcycle weather is the plan for me.

There is one in Valpo we take stuff from the club too. Not sure of the contact as one of the old guys does it. A gallon and a half of 22's pays about $10...

Yeah I got a mix I just toss in the bucket. Let me know if you ever get the contact info. I'm sure by the end of the year I may have a 5 gal bucket to turn in.

For the 1st time in quite awhile, I didn't have to leave the property! It was a great day!
