Desert training
I was station at Ft Carson, CO and our supply unit became involved in “Desert Rat” training at Ft Irwin, CA.
We moved our unit, by truck, and stayed for 3 months while the (NYC) Army reserves played war games in the sand. 1978
i just set around all day, every day, bored, because i wasn’t assign anything to do and limited to staying on base. It was barracks, mess hall, barracks!
the only thing i got out of it was lots of sand in my stuff and a pat on the back.
fun.
