Kevin,
Back in those days, it was Camp Drum and I was not aware of the 10th Mountain Division being anywhere near.
What did us Army guys say?  Well now, since you asked, best I can recall was F T A, and that was definitely not an abbreviation for Fun, Travel and Adventure.   :P

Winter Hawk:
Still better than being in SE Asia....   :yessir:

Bigsmoke:
Been there, did that, and I agree wholeheartedly.

Winter Hawk:
Thought you were.  Being Navy and getting out in 1965 I missed all the "fun" although we did sit on Station Yankee for 3 days, enough to qualify us for some ribbon.  We were supposed to go in for shore bombardment but then they cancelled that and sent us to try to get photos of a Russian sub.

I saw what it did to guys and was very glad I hadn't enlisted in the Army or Marines!
