Guys,
That is the downfall of all wannabees. Eventually they try to wolf their stories to guys that were in the AO or in the same unit. Ron had all sorts of "war stories" throughout the documents that I read from him, but as I was not in the Dominican Republic, I Corps, II Corps, the 82nd ABN, the 25th IINF or the 4th INF, all I could see were the inconsistencies to his story. I leave it up to you been there, done that guys to point out the rest of his BS.
I am glad Ron is not longer on this site. I am sure that David would eventually have to suspend me for repeatedly calling el toro pooh-pooh on Ron's stories.
