I also remember Trooper Lofblad I had forgoten his name till you mentioned it. In the late 50's say 59. We went on several outings. Once down the allegheny river in canuoes took 5 days from franklin to kittaning . I was worried cause we had the food in our large canuoe. Once we went from kittaning to pittsburgh on the P/T boat from the troop from kittaning. Made lot of friends and had great times. Those were the days.
