Pvt Derek Marsland

Specialized in Mortars and other support weapons, Milan anti-tank missiles and sustained fire machine guns. I really took to your .50 caliber machinegun. I can't remember the armoury sargeants name at the moment, but, after a couple of hours cleaning, he had me stripping and assembling them as demonstrations for our guys and some of yours. I would love this project to end up with talking to him again. Other personalities stick out. Specialist Cope, a medic. William (Billy) G. Kidd from Muncie. I lost his address, he was a good guy we had a couple of beers together on July fourth!!!!
