Trooplist
of Association Members who served in the

3rd Battalion/Squadron 14th Armored Cavalry Regiment
Last updated: 
8/27/10

This section presents a list of the 14th Cavalry Association's current members who served in the 3rd Battalion/Squadron in the period 1948 - 1972.   If you are a veteran of the Squadron but not yet a member of the Association we hope you will chose to join

Members are listed in the order in which they joined the Regiment.  The units (company/troop/battery) in which they served are listed in sequence following their names.  In the "Route" column at the right  the entry "email" identifies the individuals to whom we are able to forward email messages directly or via a friend.  Procedure  for  contact is provided below.  The entry "web" indicates that the member can be reached by email or by going directly to his personal website listed at the end of this page.   For members who have ridden on to Fiddlers Green the year of departure is shown in last column.

To go direct to your contemporaries in this list use the "Find" command (control + F) and the last two digits of the year that you joined.   This will take you to the first man on the list who was in the Squadron in that year .

*Reflagged 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment  15 May 1972

Are you in contact with a former member of the Squadron who is NOT listed here???  If you can contact him by email please send the address of this website and encourage him to join the Association.  If he does not have email please print a copy of the flyer/membership application and send it to him by regular mail.

INTERCOM This system is maintained to assist members of the 14th Cavalry Association in gaining contact, by email or regular mail, with other members whose addresses they do not have.  It is for messages directed to an individual.  Messages for a group should be posted on the Message Board

If the individual on your squadron trooplist whom you seek to contact can be reached by Email and you elect to use that channel please follow this procedure:

On the first line in the text of your message identify the person to whom it should be relayed by showing his name and unit in the first line 
of the message text. 
     (Example:  "FOR Jack Lighthorse, member of  I Troop 14th ACR in 1965")

Identify yourself in the next line of text
    (Example:  "FROM Bill Overholt, Gunner of Tank I 25")

OK      Click here to bring up a message form addressed to our relay point

This is a "one-way" service.  After the initial contact all further communication between sender and addressee should be DIRECT.

If you do not receive an early reply to your email bear in mind that there are times when an addressee is away from home - or his #~*^# computer is down.

**********

If your addressee does NOT have email you can address a letter to him as shown in the following example:

  Jack Lighthorse (3-1965)
  2405 Williston Dr
  Charlottesville, VA 22901-7734

Note:  It is necessary to show the addressee's unit and year in parenthesis by his name since it is possible that there is another member by the same name who served in another squadron or in same squadron at a different time.

We will overwrite the Ivy address and forward your letter.
