MAC
I do not know how many battalions there are in a regiment but there was a 6/33 FA in VN assigned to another AO. Had the same unit patch as 2/33. |

Great Idea
Great idea. Good job on getting this started. On the BRO site it is hard to find and connect with other Arty Alums. We needed a site like this. |

Rumor
I heard a rumor from a local Army/Civil War History Buff that the 2/33 was disbanded in 1979. It was joined with the 1/33 Missile Defense Unit. Has anyone else heard anything? I tried to contact the 1/33 Arty in Germany but no response from anyone I e-mailed.

Mac:
How ironic that you found Lt. Franzoni. Yesterday Isent an e-mail to friends of mine who are Universityof Virginia alumnae. I know Franzoni went to UVAbecause he used to talk about the wild frat parties. Iasked my friends to check with the alumni associationfor Franzoni's address - a moot point now.We will certainly toast him in absentia.I will have to dig out the list of names I have andshare them with you and Del. Maybe we can come up witha few more addresses.On another subject: Where does your son bar tend inNew York? I go into NYC fairly often. I have a son inschool there. Maybe I'll stop in and say hello to yourson.
