1996-97, Lt. Legal assistance officer, assigned to 5th Air Division HQ, Moscow AA District, Russian Air forces.

Actually the 11th, like all the rest of the Army Reserve combat units (except for 100-442 (Inouye's Guard) and 2 AH Bns) were taken down as part of the OFF Site Agreement between Director, NGB and Chief, Army Reserve, in 1994, in which the Army Reserve would concentrate on EAD/EAC CS/CSS support of the Regular Army and the ARNG would provide integrated combat/CS and CSS forces at divisional level. The ARNG never really honored this agreement, though the Army Reserve did (I put the 205th down in six months in 1994).

I went through Survey School at Fort Sill twice, once in the basic course in the fall of 1962 then the advanced course in the summer of 1964. For some reason this conversation seems familiar like we had it once before a couple of years ago in the WIR or PacWar forum.
