Good Day,
84-86 I served in Co.C (ABN) 5/327th INF, Ft.Richarson, AK. The 327th was part of the 172nd. Co C, 4/5/6 were ABN units. When the 172nd deactivated in 86 and became the 6th Light INF BDE what became of the three ABN companies? I thought they became part of the 82nd, am I correct? If so, what BDE?

I was with 2nd-327th E-Co from March 1970 thru April 1971. First half with FDC (MOS 11C) on T-hawk and Phu Loc District. I was at Phu Loc when the sappers hit T-hawk in June 70. I later transfered to Headquaters as (MOS 11B) and was back on T-hawk most of the time.
I am friends with a Vietnamese couple that came to the States in 64, now retired, he is from Hue and she is from Saigon. He sends me news about Vietnam. Maybe some day we can get back there. Now a lot of the AO along the Gulf has turned into resorts.

My father was in the 327th, Co.D. 82nd Div when the Division was formed in WW1. He was with it all the way until after the Armistice when he came home from France. They were in St. Mihiel and the Argonne offensive, Marboch sector.
He took pride in the unit. He rated Corporal.
They went through the "thick of it" all through the war.

I am the son of Leon "Ranger" Haxton, who served in Vietnam, 1970-71. His first grandchild, Braylon Leon Lee, was born today (10FEB2009); and while googling his name, I thought I would also google my fathers name. Well, it brought me to this website, and I thought I would leave this message. I am currently a dentist with U.S. Naval Mobile Construction Battalion FORTY serving on a deployment in Okinawa. It is my 2nd deployment; my first was to Camp Arifjan Kuwait.
