Chuck Hjortness
chuckh@coastalnet.com I am a former member of the 2bn 9arty
25inf Division. I served with the initial shipment of 25th troops sent to
Vietnam in December 1965/January 1966 from Schofield Barracks, Hawaii.
Our base camp was then in Pleiku for all of the 3rd Brigade. After
leaving country in January 1967, I understand that a change of command was
made, and the 3rd Brigade of the 25th became part of the 4th Infantry
Division sometime in 1967. All of the remaining forces of the original
25th were in Cu Chi, where the division must have remained for the
duration of what I still refer to as the Vietnam War.
I was hoping to find some roster information on the original members that
shipped out from Hawaii to Pleiku in 1965/1966.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank,

websites. The current situation has piqued my interest a little as I am a
member of the Air National Guard. Great job!

River Division 552. I remember the 25th being there on several different
occasions. Wasn't Tra Cu a "piece of work".

Pietenpol Air Camper, but am also looking into buying a Tri-Pacer to fly
until (and after) it's done. I still dont know a lot about Tri-Pacers yet,
and this site has inspired me to find out more! This is a great site!

Hi Dave, I was in Nam during 66, 67 &
68,
around the Dong Ha area, a few miles south of the DMZ. I have a lot of
slides of the area including Phu By, Kason, Hue and "Hill 180". I was in
the Marines and provided Radio Relay coverage out in the Jungle for Line
of Sight communications. Your pictures bring back a lot memories, good
and bad!!
