My Slayer coffee mug is looking its age. Cracks from too many dishwashing machine washes. I am thinking of making a run of new ones. Anyone interested?

Sound off
When were you at Camp Slayer?
Who were you assigned to?

Who was last to turn off the lights?

Who know the status of the Camp?

It has been ten years since this Memorial Day. To all great Memorial day.

The roof of the CMPC first housed our MWR recreation tents one for Computers one for TV Movies. Bothe were Air Conditioned, but very dusty. Later on the MWR stuff moved downstairs , then we used the roof for our Hail-n-Farewells during good weather.

When the Military Tacticians decided to put blimps above our camps, making aiming stakes where there was none before. The insurgents were able to get closer to our camp. Instead of splashing into the Lake or hitting a field, we were getting hit; Water tanks, living quarters; outside recreation centers, etc. The Camp bought a fancy new fire truck, but it couldn't fit between the trailers. So, they took the center row out and made a Grande Promenade. The moved the trailers to a location across a canal, most were agreeable to it. They actually had some really cool digs, especially if you worked at the palace.

Our Lake was much smaller, so the Lake homes around Slayer Lake were not as big nor as many in number.
