Profile: Dan Tuck

How I Met Roger:I met Roger in 1968 in Miesau, Germany when he was assigned to my Platoon in the 164th MP Company. Everyone thought he was undercover C.I.D. (Criminal Investigation Division) Boy were we wrong!

What I Will Miss Most About Roger When He Dies For Real:He can never die, anything that pickled is preserved permanently!

Advice to Rookies: Advice!!! What kind of question is that! No amount of preparation can enable a neophyte for this event, this rite of passage. This is the test you've been waiting for all your life! As in all human activities, the Bell Curve applies to this activity as well. There will be a few ciphers who won't appreciate the experience, although probably while they are lying on their death bed breathing their last, their final thoughts will be of the RCM. While most of the participants annually will each year have the recurring best time of their life, again, each might not realize it until their old age the sublime nirvana that the RCM offered. And those chosen few, those gifted few at the other end of the spectrum, if lucky will reach enlightenment and through study and commitment might become members of the Committee. This is the test of fire, this is what legends are made of. No one can give advice that can guide a novice through this trial, We all enter this world naked and if lucky wind up that way often. Get down! Get Funky! and Get back up again! Dude! Just grip it and rip it!
