PAUL KEELING

SP4 Paul R. Keeling arrived in Vietnam in 1970 and was assigned to A/2-501 IN. He was on the January 1971 Roster. Paul was from Kansas City, KS. He lives in Basehor, KS. Paul was part of my 2nd platoon when I arrived in country. He and Dennis Geddes shared ponchos.
 
In the photo Paul is in the middle. The new Cherry (me aka Shortround) on the right. I can't remember the 60 Gunner's name. Paul was always quiet and unassuming. He was drafted after college. I talked to Paul last year and he does hope to join us in Boise for the 2022 Reunion.
