steveorino 7 #1 March 13, 2007 I need a little help from somebody at Ft. Bragg. My son is with 82nd Airborne (Alpha CO. 2/508) in Afghanistan. He was supposed to send us his deployment papers before he left in January, but he failed to do that. He did get a power of attorney set up for my wife to conduct his financial affairs while he is gone for a year, but we need to get a hold of the rear deatachment commander to obtain a copy of his deployment papers. Now I was in SF but that was back in late 70s. I'm clueless on who to contact. I have called the Ft. Bragg operator, the number listed for his detachment, (it is always busy 24/7?) the chaplain, the MPs, all to no avail. Heck I even tried contacting an old friend, retired CSM Doug (Deacon) Hodge, (his wife hung on me ) Any help in supplying me with a contact name and number? Thanks in advance! steveOrino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

floridadiver81 0 #3 March 13, 2007 Well...i dont have a name and number...but you or prolly her going would be better. Go to the front gate and asjk the guards for the baes's OMBUDSMAN. They ALWAYS have direct contact with all CO's foreign and domestic. It might be longer..but at least it will get done. Thats all the help i can offer. If my brother wasnt deployed right now he could help..he was in the 82nd stationed at bragg. You can try pming him through here. Im not sure if he will get it..but you can try. his username is bigdad510. Maybe he can help too!"Age has absolutely nothing to do with knowledge, learning, respect, attitude, or personality." -yardhippie "Fight the air, and the air will kick your ass!!!

Scott, thanks for taking care of this. the wife got the fax and we are good to go. She said, "Your SF buddies came through again" She remembers a time when I was deployed and she had car trouble. The garage wanted $300 (a fortune back then) to fix it. She called the Team Sgt and Top and the guys paid a visit in uniform (green berets and all) The cost ended up being $85.
