I love this site! To all of my brothers and sisters, those who have gone and those who survived and who understand what it means to say. "It ain't nothing but a thing". I hold you in my heart and memory forever.
When the "world" turned its back on us, "It ain't nothing but a thing", we survived.
When things went bad on patrol, "It ain't nothing but a thing", we survived.
When we played!
When we loved!
When we Cryed!
"It ain't nothing but a thing", we survived.

Family forever.

Was at Da Nang with the 366 Cmbt Spt Gp, 1969.

Served with the Air Force, rescue helicopters. Based at Phu Cat, 1969.

I am mostly interested ihe early 1960's and the Office of Civil Operations later CORDS -- my time and and organization of service

I am a student at Pierce College in Steilacoom, WA. I am getting ready to take a course about history of Vietnam. I was a young child when Vietnam war was going on, but my older brother almost got drafted, then the war ended. I know he was very scared about going to Vietnam and I offered him the money in my piggy bank to go to Canada with. None of it ever happened because the war ended. He probably would have went to Vietnam. The only other thing I remember about Vietnam was alot of people came back in body bags.

Stationed in Cam Rahn 70-71 at the 6th Conv Cntr then the Drug De-Tox Cntr as Med Supply Sgt. Would love to hear from anybody that was stationed there

I was assigned to the 86th Sig Bn HHq Co in January of 1970 and worked for a time as a clerk-typist under Col Meers, and Sgt Mike Tarin, legal clerk. Thd 86th had sites in Tay Ninh, My tho and Ben Tre. In April I was ordered to the 10th Sig Co(?),My Tho for a week to re learn my 05C20 MOS before a reassignment to Ben Tre and our small Signal Site there. . On August 18, I was injured returning from Saigon, after the last ferry crossing between My Tho and Ben Tre within a few miles of Ben Tre. Don't remember what happened to nor to the Vietnamese Driver and a Mr Baker, appaently a civilian in the vehicle, a Toyota Land Cruiser assigned to COORDS, a US Aid Agency. A couple of weeks before Thankgiving the coma broke and I began a recovery at Beach Pavillion of Ft Sam Houston, San Antonio.
I would enjoy receiving E-mail from any who might remember th 86th Sig Bn in Cu Chi, the various sites we manned, and an interesting CSgtMaj, who kept us on our toes in Hdqters Co. and Ed Boucher, the Col. driver.

My brother was in the U. S. Marines in Vietnam. His records were lost. He has been able to prove he was in the service during that time period but he has been unable to prove he was in Vietnam. He was a mechanic on guns & vehicles so he didn't get a combat service ribbon. A bunker fell in on him so his service connected injury was not during fighting so he didn't get a purple heart. He was in a camp just outside or on the edge of DaNang. I am trying to figure out some way to prove his service there. Hoped someone reading this would recognize his name - Dwight Christopher - and contact me. If their records have been proven and they remember him, that might be helpful.
Thanks.
