I thought Fort Courage was an outpost and when they went into town for supplies etc it was to Dodge City. I'm certainly not arguing though...after all I'm continually reminded about my dodgy memory and a lot of sleeps have past since I last saw an episode of F-Troop. :hihi
Since the host of the show is unsure. I looked up some info on this.willo said:
The only reference I can find is that it was set at Fort Courage, Kansas, a fictional United States Army outpost in the West, in 1865.
And the only thing I can find about Dodge City was thats were Charlie came from.
I think its all yours 6 Pack.
F-Troop based at Ft Courage.
Dunno about the town, I was hoping to find out myself ;D
Pass to you 6ers
Had a feeling Wrangler Jane :hearton would get a mention somewhere

chameleon
- can catch flies over one and a half body-lengths away with its tongue
Q: How long is the veiled chameleon’s tongue?
A: A veiled chameleon is a small animal — about 5 inches (12.7-cm) long, not counting his tail — with a tongue longer than he. The tongue can stretch to six times its rest length, and is about 7.5 inches (19.0 cm) long.
He needs a long, fast tongue because he is neither. The slow-moving creature never chases his prey but only edges towards it. He rocks a bit to judge the distance, focuses his independent swiveling eyes and unleashes his tongue to smite the insect from afar — up to one and a half body lengths away. The sticky tip gloms on.
The tongue whips out faster than our eyes can follow, speeding at 26 body lengths per second, according to two Dutch biologists: Jurriaan H. de Groot, at Leiden University and project leader Johan L. van Leeuwen, at Wageningen University. The tongue hits the prey in about 30 thousandths of a second — one tenth of an eye blink.

After F-troop post, at my brothers for his birthday and as happens, we discussed all matters of trivia. Seems a few had collectors sets of F-troop. We're gonna have an F-troop night.
Dress up as characters and have a quiz (amongst drinks) prizes (of more drinks) etc.
