I played on the Lee County Lacrosse team, which was run by Bruce DeKoff who worked at Riverdale at the time. My understanding is that he transferred to another school and the team is no longer based at Riverdale but is still going somewhere.Never did ROTC myself; went into the Marines anyway. One of my friends back in the day was the senior student in ROTC, whatever they call the rank <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> He went into the Marines too after I did, but we lost touch....Huh. I wonder if the proprietor when I went there sold the store to someone else. I think his name was Jack. He started the store down Palm Beach Blvd IIRC, but a friend told me he moved it after I left town. I used to get good discounts there, he gave me good rates when I sold back some supplements, and we played a lot of games of modified Space Hulk in the store which was fun. Shrug. Maybe he gave me good deals because I was one of his first customers, or maybe its because I sold him my copy of the original 3 D&D books (you know, the little fold over ones - I acquired them for $0 at a used bookstore I had credit at ;0 ) and several old school modules he was missing from his collection...So if Pioneer is gone, are there any good stores left in actual Ft Myers? Here in San Diego I go to Game Empire, though occasionally. Its a good store -- well stocked, a large playing area, and with a fairly sizable collection of used stuff that I like to skim thru to pick up old OOP stuff that is useful for source material -- but some of the people that hang out there exceed my geek buffer so I keep my loitering time to a minimum <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f644.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll eyes    :rolleyes:"  data-smilie="11"data-shortname=":rolleyes:" /></blockquote>
