my father served in the 82nd airborne/military police., I have been trying to find out information about him for some time, as I'm pretty sure that he enlisted back in 1949 or 50 but I know that when I was just a baby they wouldn't let him jump anymore so he jus got out if anyone could give me any info on him I would very much appreciate it as he believed in his country as well as he fought for his country. he passed away in 1992 but i have not been able to obtain any of his records as my stepmother would not talk to us anymore after his passing. so if you can help me or not or lead me in the right direction would be a big comfort to my family as we have nothing please let me know if you can further assist us in any way. it would be a very big big help thank you very much for your time. 5314 e.mt.houston houston, tx 77093 281-442-6005 .

Looking for anyone who can help my father( CHARLES PATRICK JAQUISH) Air Force, below is a quote from him regarding October 1969. "At Camp Evans I was attached to the 101st airborne, I believe it was the 3rd brigade. My duties were to go with a South Vietnamese Lt in a Radio Jeep and call in airstrikes on suspected or verified enemy positions found by recon patrols and the Lrrps. Sometimes they would drop us off by chopper if it was too far from camp evans or not accessible by jeep. We usually went toward the Ah Shau Valley Region." He is trying to prove that he was actually incountry, b/c all of his records were highly classifiend and have since been destroyed. Thanks Stephen

I am trying to find information on my cousin, SFC Russell Carrell Fordham. He was killed in Quang Tri on 4 Sep 69. He was in the 101st Airborne, and his platoon (?) was called "The Executioners." I got this information from a book called Battles in the Monsoon written by Samuel L. Marshall. A picture of my cousin taken a few weeks before he was killed is in the book. I was only a small girl when he went away and do not remember a lot about him. I've been trying for several weeks to find anything or anyone in order to give his mom some kind of peace, but she passed away just 2 weeks ago. I am still determined to find someone that may have known him, as I am one of a few of his family that is left. Thanks for any help...

My name is Dale Lewis, assigned to A Co. 2nd/501st April 1970.
I joined the Co. on May 5th, 1970 on FSB Henderson. As you know we were overrun
the following morning and suffered tremendous loss. Of the 33(?) KIA, 2 went
missing, Sgt's. Teran and Kier's remains were recently identified and returned
to family members.
I first returned to Vietnam in 1994 in a personal effort to account for MIA's
and have made numerous trips over the years. I presently live in Danang and have
turned my attention to going back to FSB Henderson. In 2000 I was able to locate
FSB Henderson and photo it from a distance, the crater left by the ammo dump
going up is quite obvious. I'm hoping to return on Sep. 2nd, 2002 and spend a
few days on top. I say hoping as the trip to Henderson will start with a short
boat ride crossing the river and then by foot to the top. I expect the trip to
the top will take approx. 24 hrs. It is a trip I have long looked forward to but
worry my age (53) may be an obstacle in my desire to return.
When we were hit on Henderson I was RTO for Lt. Knight, also in my fighting
position were unknown Sgt. and medic. I was on last chopper out and have often
wondered what happened in the days following May 6, 1970.

Welcome home, everybody. I know this is going to sound totally nuts, but please hear me out. I'm 24 years old, but from the time I was a small child I had recurring dreams of flying over a jungle, ending with a bright flash of light. As time went on, more details appeared, and ultimately I heard the name "Michael Kelley". Often in the dreams, I was the door gunner. Through the internet, I've begun doing research and have found that there was in fact a SP4 Michael Patrick Kelley who was a door gunner killed on March 26, 1967, in Hoa Nghia Province, South Vietnam, from the 82nd Medical Battalion. At present, I'm a trauma nurse who intends to become a flight nurse (on helicopters) when I gain more experience. I'm curious to know if anyone out there knew SP4 Kelley and would mind e-mailing me to discuss this man's life. Thanks!

I remember it from a movie about Custer, but I hadn't realized it was used in Viet Nam (or at least in movies about Viet Nam.) I know it is supposed to have been Custer's favorite song or something, but how is it connected to the Viet Nam War?

Just wanted to send you an update. I have now found three men who knew my uncle
in Vietnam. His Squad leader, Floyd Turnley, and two guys who helped him out the
night he died, David DeSoucy and Michael Christensen. I have spoken with both of
them on the phone and both are super guys. David got in touch with me by looking
at your website. He lives in California, but volunteered for security at the
Olympics in Salt Lake. He remembered that one of the other guys, Christensen,
was from Salt Lake, so he decided to look him up while he was there. He was
unable to locate him, so David called the Salt Lake Tribune and they agreed to
write an article to try to find him. Within hours after the article was printed,
they found Michael Christensen. He called me the next day. It was wonderful to
be able to speak to him. He said they gave him a medal for helping my uncle that
night, and he insisted that I have this medal. David and Michael met again and
they did a follow up story in the newspaper and I have attached it. Thought you
may want to put a story on your website about it. It might help to show people
there is hope in finding out information and finding friends.
It is just amazing at the information I have gotten just by putting a message on
your site. I really appreciate you helping me in this. I asked David what
prompted him to go to the website, and he said it was when he received his
renewal notice in the mail. I will send a copy of the first article later, in
case you want to use both. It really is a cool story!!

THANK YOU FOR CREATING SUCH A WONDERFUL SITE FOR THE VETS THAT WERE NEVER PROPERLY THANKED! ON BEHALF OF THOSE WHO EITHER DON'T CARE NOR UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU WENT THROUGH, I THANK YOU ALL! THAT PROBABLY WON'T MAKE YOU FEEL MUCH BETTER, ESPECIALLY SINCE I ONLY KNOW BITS AND PIECES OF WHAT THE HELL CALLED VIET NAM WAS LIKE THROUGH THE LOVE OF MY LIFE, GLADSTONE "SPEEDY" EDDS -- SERVED WITH PATHFINDERS FOR 3 TOURS AND RETURNED TO GET HIS GREEN BERET. I NEVER TOLD HIM HOW PROUD I WAS OF HIS ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND UNSELFISHNESS...HE COULD HAVE BEEN PERCEIVED AS BEING A BIT COCKY ON THE OUTSIDE IF YOU DID NOT KNOW HIM, BUT HE WAS A SOFTIE ON THE INSIDE. HE WAS KILLED OCT. 25, 1975, IN HIGH, MASS (FT. DEVANS)10TH SPECIAL FORCES GROUP. I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM ANYONE WHO MAY HAVE KNOWN HIM, AS I AM PUTTING TOGETHER A BOOK OF MEMORIES OF THIS GREAT MAN IN ORDER FOR THE WORLD TO KNOW WHAT BEING BRAVE AND LOVING ALL AT THE SAME TIME IS ALL ABOUT!
UNFORTUNATELY, DURING A SPLIT IN OUR RELATIONSHIP, WE BOTH MARRIED THE WRONG PEOPLE AND LIVED TO REGRET IT AND HAD MADE A PACT TO RECTIFY THAT SITUATION WHEN HE RETURNED FROM HIS MISSION IN '75. SINCE WE NEVER GOT ALL THINGS SQUARED AWAY, AND WENT ABOUT OUR LIVES TOGETHER, I HAVE LIVED MY LIFE WITH BITTERSWEET MEMORIES. I CAN NEVER LIVE EVERYDAY LIKE A HOLIDAY AND EVERY NIGHT LIKE A SATURDAY NIGHT WITHOUT HIM. I CAN SAY THAT I AM NOT A "LEG" BECAUSE OF THIS MAN MADE OF TRUE GRIT! MY DREAM IS TO JUMP ONE MORE TIME, BUT IT WILL NOT BE THE SAME WITHOUT HIM THERE TO LAUGH AT ME! WHILE HE WAS IN NAM, HE HAD A CAPTAIN BY THE NAME OF COOPER, FIRST NAME DAVE (I BELIEVE). IF ANYONE OUT THERE KNOWS ANYTHING OF EITHER SGT. GLADSTONE "SPEEDY" EDDS, PLEASE CONTACT ME DIRECTLY. IN ADDITION, IF ANYONE KNOWS THE WHEREABOUTS OF HIS FORMER WIFE AND HIS CAPTAIN, WITH WHOM THE WIFE CARRIED ON AN AFFAIR BEFORE AND AFTER SPEEDY'S DEATH, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW ABOUT THAT AS WELL, AS THERE ARE A FEW THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO SQUARE AWAY. I HOPE I AM NOT PERCEIVED AS VINDICTIVE AND UNKIND AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, BUT I DO FEEL BOUND TO LOCATE THESE FOLKS AND LET THEM KNOW THAT NOBODY WAS FOOLED, AND I WOULD DESIRE TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT SINCE I AM THE ONE LEFT BEHIND TO DO THE DEED. PLEASE HELP ME IF YOU CAN WITH ANY PART OF THIS AND I HOPE YOU DON'T FEEL THAT I HAVE SPOKEN OUT OF BITTERNESS IN THE LAST PARAGRAPH, BUT THERE WERE NEVER MANY SPECIAL PEOPLE IN MY LIFE BUT "SPEEDY" WAS AN OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE OF WHAT I BELIEVE MANY OF YOU REPRESENT AND THAT I WISH I COULD SEE MORE OF TODAY!

My old Friend, Wes Carey, spoke to me on the phone the other day from Seattle, Washington. He told me he was just completing a project that he wanted me to review - "Letters To The Wall". He knew I'd be interested, because like him. I was once a young man serving my Country in the Republic of Vietnam, just as my older Brother had. Wes said he was mailing me a tape, and he made sure he had my address in Florida correct. I asked that he send 2 copies, as I wanted to send one to my Brother.
I was pretty excited when the tape arrived. I took it to work with me the day after I received it, and sat it on top of my desk. I carried it home with me that afternoon, but for some reason, I put off watching it. I emailed Wes and told him, "I'll take a look at it this weekend and get back to you."
Vietnam was 30 years ago for me.
I was on my home computer Saturday Afternoon and checked my email and found that Wes had just sent me a short one, "Have you watched LTW yet?" I hadn't. My wife was gone for the day, with her friend, down to Ft Myers to see old friends. I was home alone. I closed down my computer and went in to the kitchen and cooked a couple of hamburgers, watched a little T.V.. Then finally, I picked up one of the copies of the Film Wes had sent me, off the Dining Room Table, opened the box it had come in, tore the plastic wrapping and pulled out the tape. I went to my son's room and sat on his bed and put "Letters To The Wall" in his VCR.
I watched and listened intently, as a daughter spoke of the day she and her Mother were told her Father was missing in action, as two Men related their Dad's last words spoken to them, as if they'd had the same Father, "watch after your Mom and your sisters, take care of them while I'm gone." Then Wes came on the screen and spoke of his old Friend Charlie, who'd forfeited his life in action in Vietnam, of the day his life changed. A Medic spoke of his Comrades in Arms, proud he'd been there with them to serve. A Nurse spoke of the young Men whose shot and mangled bodies came through her hospital, frightened young men who she reassured, without knowing whether they would live or die. She recalled running her hand through their hair and telling them soothingly "everything's going to be okay, you're going to be okay." And tears began to well in my eyes, coming from the darkest recesses of my heart, as I listened to a Mother tell of the last time she saw her son, a young Marine ordered to the Republic of Vietnam. My Mother you see, saw off two sons with orders to Vietnam some 5 years apart. Oh God, what she must have felt, but each of us came home again.
Then each, in their turn spoke of the day they visited The Wall. They searched out the location of their Father, Friend, Son, in the log at The Wall that lists the names in chronological order of the year they died and maps where their names will be found on The Wall. I saw them each, before the black granite, at the names of those they so loved. Each related the feeling of peace that welled inside them as they etched the names over white paper. A Mother and Father who lost their son, whose grief had been too great to console one another, in touching his name on The Wall find solace and understanding of the grief they share. A daughter leaves pictures of her children for her Dad whose name stands there, a son writes his Father a letter assuring him he's taking care of the Family, A Friend, my Friend, writes a letter to "old Charlie" to tell him what he's done with his life. He shares with Charlie that his life meant something and that he'd gone on from Vietnam in service to America.
The Park Service in charge of maintaining The Wall, describe the tribute of letters, pictures and medals left there. They thought at first, it was something that would slow down as the years went by, but instead it increased. They kept and catologued each item and today the items themselves are a part of this Tribute to the Men who served their Nation in one of its most controversial Wars.
In viewing "Letters To The Wall", I realized, the Vietnam Memorial doesn't just honor the Men whose names are found there. It doesn't just honor the Men who served our Nation in the struggle in Vietnam. The Vietnam Memorial Honors us ALL.
Galloping Pictures production of the documentary "Letters To The Wall" is poignant in its simplicity. It's "not about war"..."It's not about politics...."It's about people...The ones that are here, and the ones who didn't make it back." "Letters To The Wall" is truly about the healing that takes place there. 58,000 names are etched in the black Granite of The Wall that is the Vietnam Memorial in Washington D.C.
A Professional Production by Galloping Pictures, "Letters To The Wall" is itself a tribute to all the Men who gave their lives in the villages, cities, jungles and on the rivers in Vietnam, and to the Men who served alongside them, who made it back. Yes, it made me cry. It took me to a place I had never been before, and it took me home. A must see film.

I sent an email to Trudi Evans, niece of Avenger James "Michael" Holmes. I was
stunned and brought to tears when I saw her photos and info on the avenger site
and recognized the name but could barely recognize the photos. It's been over
30+ years. Anyway, I considered him as a friend and was the medic who pulled him
out of the ambush kill zone on 102268. He died as we worked on him, AK round

My name is Chuck Malott and, at the prodding of Roger Barski, I am gathering information for a book concerning FB Airborne, particularly the night of May 13, 1969. Roger really wants this story told and has asked me to help. As this project is just getting off the ground, I need as much information, insight, and recollections as I can gather. Any information sent to me, including pictures, will be copied and returned. I was in Nam in 71-72 with Co D 51st Inf. I now teach high school English and this will be my first book. I'd like it to be worthy of the men who served, survived, and died. Roger has already given me the after action report along with some sketches of the firebase. I also have his Silver Star Awards. He will be my main advisor on this project. Any information regarding the initial insertion into the area, the building of the site, daily life while manning the site, the days leading up to the attack, the attack itself, and the days following the attack will be most helpful.

I was with A CO 2/501st in 1970. I was with the first plt, first sq leader,
under SSGT. Joe Ludwick. I'm writing this e-mail to clear up an issue I read in
a book not to long about about A CO 2/501st or at least tell my side of the
story. In the book I was refereed to as the "druggie" SGT. Today I would just
like to set the records straight. Yes, it's true that I did smoke pot while I
was in the rear area's, never in the field. As most of you can recall we had two
types of people, either you were a Head or you were a Drinker. I'm not trying to
point fingers at anyone, as I do know and accept the fact that we all did the
best we could to take care of each other.
I do remember some of the details, such as the night when we all were pinned
down outside of LZ Ripcord. It didn't look like we were going to make it out of
a pretty differcult fire fright. The LT yelled out " what do you guys what to do
live forever". At that point most of the Plt. stood up and all at once advanced
on the NVA. We lost a lot of good men that night.
I also remember the next day as I was walking point we came across three NVA on
a trail and we opened up on them. We had two KIA's and the other was in bad
shape. We called back to our six and he said that we had three KIA's "do you
understand", we understood and took care of business.
I'm not sure if people remember me or even if they what too. I just want to set
the record straight that I might not have been the best military orientated
person but I took care of my people.
The book said that I refused to go to the field and the book was right. I did
refuse to accept a Op order to the same AO that we were in the night before. We
came in for a three day stand down and to replace the men we lost. At around
midnight that same night we were given an Op order stating that we needed to go
back out to that same AO in the morning. The whole team got together and decided
that we would refuse the Op order.
Well in the morning when we were in formation and the birds ready, the CO gave
us our marching orders and I reported that we were not going to support his Op
order. The CO asked that all those refusing the order to step forward. At that
time I was the only one who stepped forward. Yes, all by myself. I didn't say
much to anyone nor did I ever say who was involved. I just took what was coming
to me like a man. I losted my stripes which was no bid deal as I was able to get
them back and them some within eight months. I must mention that I Op order was
canceled and during a discharge review board in MA in 1974 it was found that the
Op order was not required and not supported by command. I was awarded back pay
for the reduction in rank.
After I left the 101st I was sent over to the 155 Assault Hel Co by the Cambodia
boarder were I stayed for eight months before going stateside. I served a total
of seventeen years with the service before coming down with NHL (cancer) due to
agent orange and received 100% disability. Alot of things were said and done in
Viet Nam and some that we all are not proud of. I try to think about the
positive things that we did and that's how I'm able to deal with life. Sure,
I'll never forget those ruff times but I'm able to move on. It was a war and we
all did what we had to do to survive. I don't expect for most people to
understand some of the things that were said or done in Viet Nam but I just
wanted to provide the other side of the story.
Regardless of the units feelings for me, I want to welcome each and everyone
home to this great country. I do hope to meet you all soon.

One of my best friends, Jerry Smith was KIA on 22 Feb 68 near Camp Eagle. Do you
know if anyone in your organization knows the circumstances of his death. The
only information I heard was that his position was overrun and he died
during the ensuing firefight . I was a pallbearer at his funeral and have only
recently attempted to find out how he died. Are there any combat action
reports available for that date? Can you suggest any alternative sources of
information on my friend? As Navy veteran myself who did not serve in Viet Nam,
I admire and respect your individual sacrifice in the service of our country.
God bless and keep you and all your fallen comrades.

I am trying to help my husband, Robert "Dale" Wondercheck - possibly known as
"Lil Buddy" or "Tiny" - He was in Vietnam August 1970 thru February 1971. He
was with the 67th maintenance, and stationed at Camp Eagle, attached to the 101st. Very soon after his arrival in Nam, he became a Company Officer jeep
driver. He traveled with ammo convoys, and one particular event seems to be the
root of his PTSD problem. He remembers mortar fire on the convoy going around a
corner in front of him (some place in Laos), he remembers a flash, and the rest
has found a buried place in his mind. He does remember driving back without the
convoy or any other escorts by taking a short cut through rice patties in North
Vietnam, trying to get back to Camp Eagle. If anyone remembers this event or
remembers him, please e-mail me so I can print notes off for him. He will be
going into a PTSD program in the near future trying to find himself during that
6 month period in Vietnam. Any and All h!
elp or contact will be appreciated!

I am writing because my brother was in Vietnam right out of high school around
1968 and 1969. he was in anke vietnam. i believe he was a helicopter machine
gunnist. he won the bronze star and is in big trouble. my brother was only 19yrs
old. he never recieved any kind of mental health care even though i remember he
must have needed it desparately. i w! ish i had the room to tell ya'll
everything i have to say. he is a wonderful man and brother and so many thing
have just collasped and only in the last 7yrs or so. i am helpless to help him.
he was married when he came home and although we all saw the changes, he is a
strong person and managed to live a normal life. but about 7 to 10 yrs ago, he
changed. i would like to give details, but i don't even know if anyone cares
about it. he is currently serving 30 to life, and he did not even kill anyone.
can someone please help me. i don't have money and i don't even know if he can
be helped. but please someone help him. please write to him. my tears can not
help any longer. he would love to hear from anyone who would write to him and
lift his spirits. ADDRESS IS: TRINIDAD CONSTANCIO III 836479 4 F08 RT 2 BOX 4400
GATESVILLE, TX 76597 he was a police officer at our home town of Palacios,Tx. he
is a good man that does not deserve what has happened to him. I firmly believe
if he had received mental counseling he would have remained strong and not given
in to weaknesses that caused the tragedy that happened. thank you for letting me
post this, i almost feel like i just had some counseling myself. i have always
been so proud of all you guys. thank you. Rosie

and LZs. Anyone remember FSB Rondezvous? I was there and at LZ Sally, Camp
Evans, Quang Tri and Tam Ky. Our group really got around. I really enjoyed this

there. My best to all Screaming Eagles, where ever and when ever!!

From: Dave "Doc Deuce" DeSoucy VP, AAA Subject : A Company Casualty Stats Yo Bros - Just received my copy of The Screaming Eagle 3rd Quarter 2004 and I noted casualty stats for all units within the 101st in Nam. Located on page 31 the 2/501 had a total of 316 KIA's. Alpha company's total being 108 from 67-72. It appears that only 3 other rifle companies in the entire 101st had a higher KIA rate and all 3 of those were part of the 1st Brigade which deployed to Nam in 65. Using a factor of at least 4-1 wounded rate, our company casualty rate for the entire 4+ years tour probably exceeds 250+%. Fred Brander (original 1SG) has researched the company and identified about 55 KIA's the first year in 68. That first year the casualty rate was probably in excess of 150+%. It's no wonder that we picked up the nickname of "Hard Luck Alpha". Just some more data for our company history.

Garlock We all know Memorial Day is more than barbeque and pool openings. It is a time to remember. In 2001 I wrote a column for the Atlanta Journal Constitution for Memorial Day, here it is below. I can't take much credit, the insights came from Joe Galloway. But maybe it's worth another read as Memorial Day approaches. SUCH GOOD MEN I recall TV reports of fellow soldiers arriving at an airport, survivors of the Vietnam gauntlet, relieved at their 1st step on home ground. Their grins morphed to astonishment as protesters threw packets of animal blood at them, shouting "Baby-Killers!" Welcome home. Joseph Galloway, senior writer for US News & World Report, would differ with the protestors. Unlike more sensible journalists reporting on the war from relative comfort and safety, Joe preferred working close up, hot, tired, hungry, scared, dirty and bloodied along with the men he wrote about. Joe conned his way into hot spots like the 1965 battle of the Ia Drang Valley, aka The Valley of Death, where 450 of our men were surrounded by 2,000 well-armed NVA enemy. Over 4 days 234 young Americans died as each side chopped the other to pieces. In that battle Joe set camera aside to charge with a Medic through enemy fire in a desperate attempt to help an injured soldier. The Medic was killed, the soldier later died, and Joe Galloway was awarded the Bronze Star with V (valor), the 1st civilian ever to be decorated for valor in combat by the US Army. Consider some of his remarks at the Vietnam Helicopter Pilots Association banquet in Washington DC, July 2000. "What I want to say now is just between us, because America still doesn't get it, still doesn't know the truth, and the truth is - you are the cream of the crop of our generation, the best and finest of an entire generation of Americans." "You are the ones who answered when you were called to serve. You are the ones who fought bravely and endured a terrible war in a terrible place. You are the ones for whom the words duty, honor, country have real meaning because you have lived those words and the meaning behind those words. You are my brothers in arms, and I am not ashamed to say that I love you. I would not trade one of you for a whole trainload of instant Canadians, or a whole boatload of Rhodes Scholars bound for England, or a whole campus full of guys who turned up for their draft physicals wearing panty hose." "On behalf of a country that too easily forgets the true cost of war, and who pays that price, I say thank you for your service. On behalf of the people of our country who didn't have good sense enough to separate the war they hated from the young warriors they sent to fight that war, I say we are sorry. We owe you all a very large apology, and a debt of gratitude that we can never adequately repay." Joe talked about his friend Mike Norman, a Marine who searched out the survivors of his platoon and wrote a fine book, These Good Men. Mike explained why we veterans sometimes gather. "I now know why men who have been to war yearn to reunite. Not to tell stories or look at old pictures. Not to laugh or weep. Comrades gather because they long to be with the men who once acted their best, men who suffered and sacrificed, who were stripped raw, right down to their humanity." "I did not pick these men. They were delivered by fate and the military. But I know them in a way I know no other men. I have never given anyone such trust. They were willing to guard something more precious than my life." "They would have carried my reputation, the memory of me. It was part of the bargain we all made, the reason we were so willing to die for one another." "I am sure that when I leave this world my last thought will be of my family and my comrades, such good men." In closing Joe said "I salute you. I remember you. I will teach my sons the stories and legends about you . . ." The media forgets that Washington botched the war, but continually portray veterans as fragile, crazed or trigger-happy. Its about time America learned what Joe Galloway knows, that we are normal, patriotic citizens, proud of having served with honor and courage. Here's to the memory of every one of our brothers who paid the ultimate price - for his country, for those who sent him to that miserable war while they enjoyed the comforts of home, for those who dodged, even for those who insulted our service. We remember each one, such good men. Name: Loyde P. Snake Arender

Name: Richard Johnson I was with a/2/501 during 1970 in Sgt. Nichol's Platoon. I was on re-up hill, Granite, Henderson (wounded) and the operations around Ripcord in July (wounded again and sent home). I am particularly interested in hearing from anyone who was on re-up hill in later April when the hill got it's name. I remember someone writing 're-up hill' on a piece of cardboard and sticking it to a tree just before we moved out after having been hit on that hill for two nights in a row. I have never seen an accurate description of the events surrounding that anywhere on the web or anywhere else and would like to compare memories with anyone else who was actually there. In particular, I would like to know people's estimates (or knowledge) of how many troopers actually re-enlisted and were extracted on or about 23 April.

My dad is a vietnam vet but doen't say much, its like pulling teeth to get anything out of him. His name is William L. Blackford and he served from Jan 68 to Feb 69. All I know is he was in the 101st 326 Medical Batallion. He did bt at Ft. Leonard Wood, AIT at Sam Houstan and Jump School at Fort Benning. One of the only quotes we get from him, when we ask about Vietnam is "I was from saigon to the DMZ." It makes me sad that he cant talk about it and I am very proud of him for serving his country and would love to hear from someone who know him, and hope it may help him talk about his experiences. Dont know what else to say except I have a deep gratituded for all that serve this country especially the vietnam vets.

DARRELL POOL usa be call cool POOL WITH DET 2 Name: Andrea Email: ashepherd@wvsp.state.wv.us Date: 12 Apr 2004 Time: 16:23:11 I am looking for anyone who served with my father William "Bill" Shepherd. He was also went by "Shep". He was with Travis Air Force Base in California. I am not sure of the details but believe he served 1 to 2 years and returned in 1969. I am his daughter. I have found some more information on my father William "Bill" Shepherd with Travis Air Force Base after I posted a message yesterday. I found papers that mentioned Phu Cat AB Run and Special Forces Camp at Ben Het. I know he was there on June 25, 1969 because I found a award that he received for this date for an emergency resupply mission. I apologize for not knowing the specifics but I am becoming very interested in learning more about him when he was in Vietnam. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I was in Nam from March 70 until Sep 71. 1st Cav.222nd Brigade 184th Aviation Co. The unit was stationed in Phu Loi, but this is the problem, the 1st platoon was TDY in Duc Hoa. I was in the 1st platoon. Cpt. Ralph Hiatt or Hyatt was our platoon leader. The military can't seem to locate any records of our platoon being TDY in Duc Hoa! I know this can't be my imagination! I can only remember a few days in Phu Loi, the rest was in Duc Hoa, a small village just east of the Cambodian border. We flew the 0-1 Birddogs. A spotter plane used to locate and take out gun nest during any ground contacts, also for radio relay when no action was taking place. There was an ARVIN compound just across the street from our compound and that's where the runway was. The Airforce had a unit of 0-1 Birddogs at the same place. I remember they were training ARVINS to fly. That would suck, they could'nt even drive! Anyone know of this place or Cpt. Ralph Hiatt, please get in touch!
