Thanks to former Captain COX for his entry. I have had a relationship with my friend Bob Flannery from Long Island New York. Unfortunately make route I asked away in 2007. I am very proud to have defended Fire Base Tomahawk June 10, 1970. The outcome was much different from the Fire Base being overrun in 1969 and 1968.

Hoping you can help me locate a Purple Heart recipient or his family. I have a medal issued to a John D. Howard that was likely awarded sometime in the early 1970's and would like to return it to him or a family member. His hometown was Ocean City MD and an internet search returned someone named John D. Howard around the Towson MD area. My guess is his age would be mid-70's. He achieved the rank of BGen is the US Army. He is shown on your web site as being a member of the 327th. Any information you can provide locating Gen. Howard or family members would be appreciated. [email protected] Respectfully, Scott Eckert, USAF, Ret Henderson NV 760-617-6237

No Slack ! For God and Country! Good evening gentlemen. I'm reaching back almost 51 years and I'm asking those of you who were with John Ward, A co 2/327th on the night of October 6th 1969, to please tell me precisely how John was killed that night , during ambush ops in the flats . He did not receive a Purple Heart so it was either friendly fire or something else. I believe that Jim Simchera, Frank Seeman, John Coleman, Jack Ponson, Garry Gallant and Dale Hensen were in his platoon / squad. Some of you witnessed his death. I'm Bill Nelson and I've corresponded with some of you many years ago. But ,never really got a clear answer as to how John was killed.. I was best friends with John , grew up in the Bronx NY, together and we enlisted into the buddy system , US Army, trained together , Eleven bravo, flew to Nam together . They split us up, him to 2/327th me to 2/502nd both at Camp Eagle. He went through SERTS in Bien Hua with some of you I believe. I know he finished in-country sniper school, before he was killed. His father an NYC police detective requested I be John's body escort home, which I was plucked out of the field to do. It was the saddest journey of my life. I met his family at Dover airbase. After his burial I returned to my unit and finished my combat tour. Please before I leave this good earth , I need to know the truth , about John's cause of death , so my soul can be at peace . My email [email protected] ; home telephone 914-245-4146. Please someone step forward and tell me the truth. With respect and brotherhood. Bill Nelson... Read more
