As a veteran, I was mystified how Shep was able to stay in the same permanent party unit the whole time he served.
The answer is, he didn't..
The army sends its' recruits thru a "basic training unit", and then, (sometimes) to a seperate school for "MOS" training, before sending the graduated recruit to his/her "permanent party" duty unit.
I recently listened to a Shep tale, in which he states his initial unit was "Co A., 27th STR"(signal training regiment).
This makes a lot of sense, and it was at Camp Crowder where he joined "Co K" upon completion.
According to his tales, he first began to be a signal corps lineman, but after the mishaps on the poles, he claims he then went on to radar school.
It is still entirely possible linemen and radar men could be found in the same unit, therefore he could continue to mention the same familiar names,(First Sgt Kowalski, Lt Cherry, Gasser,etc.) whether as a lineman, or radar tech.[^]
