Here is a booklet that was distributed to all of us in June of 1964, for the Battalion Organization Day at Sidi Brahim Caserne, Etain, France, which is where Battalion Headquarters was at the time. Etain is where General Pattons' Tank Corps ran out of fuel. Patton and his crew lived in Etain for several months. I recall the organizational day as being quite a fun filled day, with plenty of food and drink for all.
