David this is a very good site on the war in Nam.I was in the Army from Nov. 76 til nov 79 and I served with many Vets…The pain was still fresh in there eye’s. When I was in my teenage years before the Army…I longed to be there…thinking I could have helped or made a difference somehow…Something in my mind keeps drawing me to learn all I can about you guy’s that fought and died and survived over there…thanks again…welcome home!

“Nui Ba Den” Dave, You said that you believed “that the U.S. Army had a communications station at the summit for a period of time. (September, 1969)” Dave, I know for a fact that many young men were executed on that mountain after a night of futile defense and heroic efforts to extract them from the camp. We watched from the grounds of the 45th Surgical Hospital the flares and the tracers lighting an erie, deadly glow around the top as the battle waged on. In the morning they brought the bodies down. Many had been shot point blank behind the head, They were so young and so dead. I’ll never forget it. As I recall, they were with communications and vital to Long Range Patrols (LRP’s) as well as all of South VN because of the unique features/position of “Black Widow Mountain”. Cpt.

I guess I was just lucky, I was assg to 7/11th fa in July of 72. It later became 2/11. We trained guys right out of basic. I was then transfered to 1/8th as cadre to train more guys straight out of basic. I will never figure out how we missed being sent to V/N. Just pure dumb luck I guess.
