I served with 1st Platoon, A/2/327th from Sept '72 to March '74. Very proud of those times; I wear my Screaming Eagle proudly on my chest. Would be nice to hear from my old buddies.

The 1SG Cox of Bravo, No Slack at Ft Campbell asked me what was the nick name of Bravo in Vietnam? So far, I have not found out. Anybody know? Was it Road Runners?

Ranger Tom Carpenter from Carrollton, MO wrote on August 3, 2017 at 07:19:

John Ortiz, I emailed you a few minutes ago. Following is a recap of that email. I was Louis's platoon leader for several months. Even though I was no longer a platoon leader ( I got a job in the rear as Executive Officer of D company in August, 1969) when Louis was killed, I always considered him one of my men and his life and death touched my life in many ways. In the 1990s, I wrote a series of tribute stories, honoring men who I was close to and died. I wrote a short story about Louis. At that time I had my own web page and put the stories on line. After more than twenty years and multiple relocations and a busy life, I need to do some searching to find a hard and/or digital copy of the story. Have you read this story? I think I titled it, something like, "Louis T Ortiz, a good soldier with a rough start and a premonition of death that came true". The story needed to be revised as the internet has opened up some channels of communication among us veterans. I will continue searching for the story. I would be interested in learning more about Louis too.

I am trying to find anyone who served with my uncle Joseph M. Thorn and could provide any stories or pictures of him. He served in 67-68 and unfortunately never made it back. He passed May 31, 1968 and was only 18 yrs old. It is probably a long shot but I have only heard stories about him and do not have many pictures . Thanks

Served with B 1/327 and HHC 1/327, 1st Brigade (Separate) Vietnam 7/65 to 6/66. Arrived at Cam Ranh Bay on the USS General LeRoy Eltinge. Wounded at My Canh II, 2/7/66. Recovered at 8th Field Hospital, Nha Trang. I am forever greatful for the Huey crew that had the guts to come in for us, in spite of heavy NVA ground fire. The Huey was so loaded with wounded on the way out that it struggled lifting off, all the while being pounded by NVA ground fire. Vietnam is forever a part of me. I wish you all the very best.

Good morning gents, my father served with 2/327 from 69-70. His name was Robert Dignan. Unfortunately he passed in May of 2010 from cancer. I currently serve in the Marines as an Infantryman and know that nobody knows you better than the guys you fought beside. So I know it is a long shot, but if any of you served with my dad if you could share some stories it would be much appreciated.

I am the Post Commander at the Cherry, Branch, AmVets Post 100 in Daytona Beach, Fl. Staff Sgt. Charles Edward Cherry was one of the first African American solders from Daytona to be killed in the Republic of Vietnam. Post 100 was named in his honor. I am looking for any one who might have gone to basic training with him or served with him. he would be around 80 yrs old had he lived, so I know this might be a tough research effort. We are trying to find a photo for the Vietnam Virtual Memorial Wall and one for the Post. If you are still out there, I would love to hear from you. Booker T. Williams. USMC 1971-1974

"TO THOSE WHO HAVE FOUGHT FOR IT, LIFE HAS A FLAVOR THAT THE PROTECTED WILL NEVER KNOW!" I came upon your site while surfing the net and knew that the above statement would have special meaning for you. I served with 3/22nd, 25th Infantry Division out of Tay Ninh as an infantryman. Fought the NVA on the slopes of Nui Ba Den twice with numerous firefights in and around the area bordering the Cambodian border. Remember your Christmas in Vietnam? Mine was spent on an ambush patrol near the Cambodian border. After 5 months in the field, I was pulled to the 93rd Evac at Long Binh to work with soldiers suffering from combat fatigue. Over the last 10 years, I chronicled my tour of duty and the response has been overwhelming. With your military background, you may find it interesting. There are presently over One Hundred 5 Star Reviews worldwide I believe that you will relate to this true story of the fight for Nui Ba Den and the struggles and sacrifices that the soldiers who served their country in Vietnam endured. Thousands of Vietnam Veterans have proudly endorsed these memoirs. Please check out the website at courageonthemountain.com with the accompanying introduction. It will make you proud for your service and all the men and women who served our country during the Vietnam war. I proud that you made it home brother! Thank you for your service and May God Bless!
