I was driving down Ardennes this afternoon and saw one of the Infantry Squad Vehicles (ISV) parked in front of the 2/508 (2 Fury) BN Hq.
The ISV is a Chevy Colorado with no skin and tricked out by Polaris right here in NC.
This seems to have to some degree, replaced the Leather Personnel Carriers (LPC) that were our primary mode of travel, besides the Hercules  and the Starlifter. Time and technology marches on. Pun intended. 😁

From Steve Hetu's collection. Bear and Paul Jedrey in the barracks probably around 1982 or 1983.

Today we attended the celebration of life for our Brother in Army Lejuan "Bear" Jones. He was one of the founding members of the All American Platoon in 1981 as a member of 1/C/2-508th PIR, 82 Abn Div at Ft Bragg, NC.
Thanks for all who attended.
