George I guess my memory isn't so bad after all. Thanks for looking up the record rainfalls and remembering Blackwell.
My service was nothing like yours but the coldest I ever was....on constant maneuvers for two weeks in the snow...wore everything I had...slept, ate, sh#% in the snow...constantly setting up and then breaking down and on the move again, night and day. Feet never got warm.
My brother in-law, a geo-physics� was also in oil & gas exploration and at Midland, TX for a long time then lived at Katy and Rock Port and ended his career as a consultant in India.
