The 74-02 Pizza Lift; It all started with Tobin knowing some of the LRAFB helicopter pilots.  After being in the field a few days, Camp Robinson, we started talking about real food and the possibility of having some pizza delivered arose.  Huff thought he could coordinate/bribe some helo drivers for a case of beer and the planning started.  We had a bunch of elderly instructors and noticed they were usually worn out from screaming at us around noon and after lunch they'd like to take a nap, so they'd have the energy to scream at us some more.   The next day we went back to the base to suit up for a parachute insertion to All American DZ.  Huff made a call, brought up a case of beer, and it was a done deal.  

The next day, we talked the helo into our camp sight for the drop off and it went off like clockwork.  We had a PRC-77, smoke, and panels, which all added up to pizza.   We were all chowing down when one of the instructors sleepily stumbled into our camp and mumbled something about hearing a helicopter.  He eyeballed our pizza and was about to start screaming at us when, David Wilson, asked him if he'd like a piece.  We all ate pizza and nothing was ever mentioned again.......  the day we got over!
