I am updating my old post from 10 years ago. I was a 22L and in the 4th Ord., Miesau Army Depot, from 81 - 83. It is a bummer to know that the 4th Ord. is no more. I have since met with a few of the NIKE guys but would like to hear from more. I wish I could have appreciated many things that I did back then as much as I do now. Most of us just didn't know how made in the shade we had it. But I do now. I hope you all have a great time remembering way back when. Until then.

This father would be approx. 69 years of age in the year 2010. My birth mother's name was Beverly Labus, originally from Pennsylvannia.
