Located this site today, my Dad was in 101st, 327th GID. He was at Normandy, Bastogne, and Market Garden. My dad was Theodore R Bell, from SD. He served in the Army for 20 years before retiring. He passed away Sept. 1997. His wife, my Mom is still active and alert. I wonder if there are other 327th GID WWII Vets, wives, widows out there? If so please contact me by email. I think my Mom might enjoy sharing memories with other seniors. Thank you, Barbara

The following is an online petition to the White House. If you would like to sign it...you may do so at this site: "https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/lower-precedence-new-distinguished-warfare-medal/5KdnkBBN
"We petition the Obama administration to:
Lower the precedence of the new Distinguished Warfare Medal.
The Pentagon is introducing a new medal to recognize the service of pilots of unmanned drones during combat operations. This medal will be placed in precedence order just below the Distinguished Flying Cross and just above a Bronze Star Medal. Bronze Stars are commonly awarded with a Valor device in recognition of a soldier's service in the heat of combat while on the ground in the theater of operation. Under no circumstance should a medal that is designed to honor a pilot, that is controlling a drone via remote control, thousands of miles away from the theater of operation, rank above a medal that involves a soldier being in the line of fire on the ground. This is an injustice to those who have served and risked their lives and this should not be allowed to move forward as planned."

I served with HHC at Camp Eagle Vietnam 1971-72. I worked as the CIF NCO. During the end of our time in Vietnam (1972) I brought the unit back to FT. Campbell, serving with B Co until I PCS to Alaska in 1974. Between Vietnam and Ft. Campbell, B Co was sent to San Mateo CA. We were adopted sons of that city and was showered with many plessings for the entire community for several days prior to being released to go home on leave and see our family and loved ones. I recall many events of that time but have forgotten many a name. I'd be interested to know where I could see a company roster for 1971-72. I have a few pictures of that time.
