AFTER ACTION REPORT (AAR) VISIT TO 1ST
BN 1ST SFG (A), OKI.
I was invited by the 1st Bn 1st
SFG, to participate in a "lessons learned" session and also to
attend the Annual Battalion Christmas party, during the week of 16-23
December. (An up-date for you that have been out of the net awhile. The
Battalion now in Special Forces, is what was previously a "C"
Detachment). The following is what I observed during that trip.

- 1st SFG HISTORICAL MEMORALBILIA: The
BN Commander has given the Adjutant CPT Ball the task of putting together a
history of 1st SFG and also reproducing photos and orders etc. from
the past. So far Lloyd Fisher, Zaky and myself have sent various photos that
will be reproduced by an Okinawan girl who does a terrific job. The photos
will be mounted and are being displayed along he walls of the "Box",
the originals will be returned to the owner. Lloyd, Eulis Presley and Roy
Johnson have filled in some gaps in the unit history with letters, orders etc.
If you have photos, orders etc laying around could you send them to the
following so that this fine units history can be perpetuated: Commander 1st
