Just joined the site and saw Sgt0811 post. I was a member of 245 and your right Solmes was the most hated. When I got to my post in 2/5 some of my buddies were from the other platoons in the series and they said that Sgt. Robinson was the guy they hated most. They nick-named him the "The Voice" and when he sounded reveille the whole series woke up. Can you remember the name of the DI we called the cowboy? Anyway I hope your still out there. M.Wade
