jph83@yahoo.com I appreciate your web page. It's ggod that there are
people out there able to talk about this war. Thanks to you some people
have a better idea of the horrific experiences of war and maybe we can
learn from our past mistakes. My grandfather served 3 tours in vietnam but
it was so horrifying that he can't talk about and still hac nightmares
from all he has seen. I am thankful for your bravery in the war effort.
Your website has helped me with my project in english. I am a Junior in
high school at Northwest Cabarrus High School in Concord, North Carolina.
I will be sure to make great mention of you and your website tomorrow in
my presentation.
thank you and God bless you.

cawleyrr@infoblvd.net You have a great site. Hard to type with
tears in my eyes. I know Go Dau Ha well. I was with an 8"er set up outside
the main gate in Sept 68. I recently lost a very good friend, Jerry White
who was Navy, stationed there in 69. I wish I could have shared your pic's
with him. After we left Go Dau Ha, We set up a firebase at Trang Bang
with all 4 of our guns. I never have any regrets about being there, but it
is amazing how vivid the memories still are. Thanks for a really great
site. Bob Cawley D Batty 3/13 Arty, 25th Inf Div

I was there from May 68 until July 69 in a
105 Artillery Battery. I was in 2nd/77th 25th Infantry Division. If you
ever run across anyone else that was in that unit, please send me a
e-mail. We were always located around the Cu Chi area most of the time.
Thank You

lunchalot@snowhill.com howdy I was looking through the net trying
to find out some info and came across ur site. I was also a 17b20 and an
sro-from 73-76. Like you I was trained in ft sill and half my class were
marines---I served with the ninth inf div 2/4 fa and 1st ad 2/78 fa.
Mostly I was on the q-4 doing registrations-adjustments-fire
missions-though sometimes i worked the czech border with the tps(can't
recall the number)anti personel---we often also ran our missions and
shifts with one operator--and we did operate mostly independent of
others-just thought it was cool to find someone who served in vietnam with
combat radars-though obviously I served with radar vn vets during my
tour.M dad and brother served in vn-one inf and the other an engineer-take
care

dbrodkin@pacbell.net I enjoyed reading your material. I was with the 2/35
Arty,54FA Group in III Corps from1/69-1/70. Our 155mm howitzer battery was
attached to the 25th on numerous operations. Much of your recollections
rang true; it is hard to forget those "trivial" day to day events which
shaped our Vietnam experience-malaria pills, burning excrement,fresh air
showers, MPC, tropical chocolate bars, and the ubiquitous HUEY.Good
job.

jbrightjr@yahoo.com I still have a policy of not talking about viet-nam
except to other brothers and sisters that were there. I decided long ago
to quit trying to educate the stupid people of the world. In the past,
when I tried to tell them the truth of Viet-nam, they prefered the
doctored version. In one case, I showed the guy the real stats on
draftees and volenteers in the nam vs WW II. He would not believe them. I
was in the class of '67. I finally had resolution about 4 years ago. And
life goes on.
