"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 felt 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. Awarded three Bronze Stars with "V" and Combat Infantryman's Badge. The cover photo on my site looks out the front window of a Huey onto the Black Virgin Mountain. My Christmas 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. There are presently over One Hundred twenty Five 5 Star Reviews worldwide. Courage on the Mountain courageonthemountain.com 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 of all the men and women who served our country during the Vietnam war. I'm proud that you made it home brother! Thank you for your service and May God Bless! George Reischling

Mark Corral "Doc" from Bullhead City wrote on June 7, 2018 at 11:04:
Company D 2/327th of 101st Airborne, Medic, Apr 69 to Mar 70. The family of Mark Corral are frantically looking for anyone that may have served with Mark during this time period. Here is his story. Mark contracted Hep C after being innoculated by the army with a dirty needle. The Hep C was not discovered until 1999 during a routine medical checkup for life insurance. There was no cure for Hep C until approx 2 years ago. He received treatment for the Hep C but before he could be cured, the Hep C destroyed Marks liver. He is in desperate need of a liver transplant today. Mark has also suffered with serious battle fatique (PTSD) over the years that resulted in the wrongful loss of his VA benefits. Therefore, we are looking for anyone that may have known Mark or could have served during the same time frame that can speak to the circumstances in Viet Nam at that time. I can provide more detailed information regarding exactly where he was in Viet Nam at specific times if needed. I am his little sister, Sue. I am easiest reached by phone at (434)645-7711 or feel free to respond to the post. I have his daughter watching it. I am too old for all this facebook stuff.

As the current brigade commander of the 1st Brigade, 101st Abn Div, I wish every present and former member of the 327th Infantry a special Memorial Day. I know for all of us Memorial Day is every day, but today we pause with our Countrymen to pay respect and to remember. Today's Screaming Eagle Soldier is very proud of the sacrifice and honor made by those who came before us. We stand a bit taller when you are around and when we speak of your actions. For today, though, we pay particular respect to those who didn't make it home and who paid it all. They are not forgotten. Honor and Country.

Remembering all our men and women who made the supreme sacrifice does not get easier as time passes. I read the names and weep at the loss. I'll be attending my COBRA reunion this June to be with other COBRAS, my brothers from VN and my younger brothers that came after us and continue to Honor our COBRA/1/327th 101st.

I served in 3rd platoon C/1327 from Sept 67 until Sep 68.Other then Fred Raymond no one else who served in 3rd Platoon at that time seems to remember me.I was medically evacuated on Christmas Day in 1967 and didn't get back until just before we took took LZ Veghel and most of the guys who I knew were gone when got back.Other then humping up and down hills and getting soaked when it rained I don't recall much of the time that I served in the 327th.I remember when we found trucks and artillery pieces buried and getting caught between the tanks and the NVA a few times when we were patrolling along the road off of LZ Birmingham.I lived in Asia most of of my life after I retired from the army in 1986 so I have never attended any reunions and have not kept in contact with anyone who served with the 1/327th in 67 and 68 other then Fred Raymond,Roger Morris and Walter.I Jackson.I stayed in Vietnam from Sep 67 until Aug 71 but served in LRRP,and Rangers the last three years that I was there.So the first tour doesn't remain as clear in my memory as the last three.I had hoped to find Tom Warf but I heard that he has already passed.I went to visit Bill Beatie when I was on leave in the states in the fall of 1968 but he doesn't recall me.I visited Heny Pasilla's family at that time as well.I thought a lot of Henry and made a promise to myself when he got killed that I would stay in Vietnam as long as I could and kill as many NVA as I possibly could.I kept that promise.I only left Vietnam after the army would no longer allow me to...

I have been doing some research on my great-uncle, George F. Bublin (my father's mother's brother), as the 100th anniversary of his death is approaching. He started out in the 311th at Camp Dix after he was drafted on 27 SEP 17, and was transferred to the 327th, Company C, at Camp Gordon on 13 NOV 17. He left New York City aboard the Baltic on 25 APR 18 & was killed in action in the Argonne Forest on 10 OCT 18. Your on-line resources here are marvelous - I've been looking over the spreadsheet of the regimental roster & can see it was involved in some very heavy action in the first part of October - the casualties from that time are sobering.

50 years ago on April 19, 1968, Operation Delaware unfolded for the 1/327 along with other battalions of the 1st Brigade, an ARVN unit and the 1st Air Cav. Shortly afterwards FB Veghal was established and the first two weeks or so of the operation was a real meat grinder for the 1/327. Those were exciting and tragic times. I was with B Company from 3/68 to 8/68 then with Tiger Force from 8/68 to 1/69 and then back to B Company for the last few weeks of my tour. Lots of good young men were KIA, many more WIA and all those who survived are forever Brothers. I appreciate all those I served with, am in awe of your courage and grit, oh the things we endured, and would love to hear from you.

I was in Bravo Co. 2nd Bn -327th, 2nd plt. Some people called me razor. My name is Elmer Ray Stephens. I was there from December 1970 till March 1972. I spent about 7 or 8 months attached to 75th ranger inf. I was involved in the lam-son missions. The Army can't find any record of me ever being in service at all, even though I have several documents to prove I was in the Military. I'm missing some documents, trying to find answers.I have no documents proving I was in Viet Nam. I am trying to find someone who remembers me. I have been trying to get disability from Va but without records, they will not give me service connected. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks for your time, Elmer

Just returned from a great time in the City of Mateo, CA for the 50th anniversary of the adoption of COA 1/327th Infantry by the City of San Mateo. The city went way out for members of our unit. I can’t thank them enough. Thank you citizens of San Mateo.

Hello- this past weekend was the parade in San Mateo for the 327th, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the adoption by the city of San Mateo, and I was also at the homecoming parade in 1972, because my dad had served with the 101st in WWII, 506th PIR, Easy Co. One of the speakers at the banquet Saturday night talked about having given equipment away to 12-year old kids then, and I was one of those kids, and at the event in 1972 Lt. Ed Holland gave me some of his equipment (wisely he declined my request for his M-16), and it would be great to get in contact with him, if any unit members could help. The vets I approached after the parade didn't know him personally, but a couple of guys suggested this website. Any assistance would be appreciated. Many thanks.

I served as 91-C (clinical specialist) w/ 1/327th Inf at Camp Eagle and various firebases (mostly on Bastogne) from 1/70 - 12/70. Recently learned that my fellow 91-C while there Pete Barszczowski (known as "Rab" or "Rabbit") passed away 1/2016 in his home state of Pennsylvania where he was a family physician. I regret not having reaching out to contact Pete prior to his death.

I arrived in Phan Rang July 4th 1966 to C/2/327th as a replacement. Was assigned a radio for the CO a 1st Lt, can not remember his name he was soon replaced by Capt. Moody. Being in Co HQ I did not get to know many guys in the platoons si nce I was only there til Sep 18, boobytrap at the well. Can remember Brownridge, Burback in commo and Teague in 1st platoon I think, Red, a medic and Brown , a medic. When I got hit I had a camera and lots of exposed film in my gear. Wish I had some of those pics. Hope someone from the company got the film developed. I am sure they had no way to find me. I know this is a long shot but hey. Thanks and thank you all for your service.

All veterans and dependents who are interested in learning about Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) disability compensation, pension or general benefits can learn at U.S. Veteran Compensation Programs (USVCP) (http://www.veteranprograms.com). USVCP is a “how to” resource that teaches veterans how to gain benefits they’ve earned.

Sue Mulligan, I saw your entry and wanted to let you know that I served along side Dennis, literally, we were in the same squad. Was really sorry to hear of his passing, he was a great guy and we always got along well. Last time I actually saw him was in July 1971 when my tour ended. If I remember correctly it was the day after his 21st birthday which we celebrated the by putting 21 matches on a c-ration pound cake. Feel free to get in touch as I am more than happy to share my memories.
