I wasn't with you. I wasn't with anyone in Nam. I took deferments. I sat my ass in my mobile home, raising kids, living. My dad, career army said don't do it , he did enuf for the whole family. I have the deepest regrets that I cant' be called one of you. Or one like you. Today, 2007, I feel guilt for not volunteering to pay the price with you all. This life almost gone, maybe next one, I join your brotherhood of warriors, of true Americans.

Third Platoon, Third Squad from April 1970 through the end of that year. Started with 14 guys and within one month we were down to four - Roy, Cal and Papa. The operation on 882 and 714 was too intense. Sammy Gullart was killed that May. Walked point mostly because I was the cherry buck sergeant, along with Jenson and Unruh. Spent Christmas in Sydney, Got back to the rear and Top sent me to LBJ with a very doped out prisoner. Hated Bastogne during the monsoon so Top kicked me back out in the woods as a supply sergeant. Captain Mills, and Captain Turner were great. Didn''t get much opportunity to know the new CO but he seemed too gung ho for the 1971 version of the war. Ron Curtis was killed in February 1971 when his frag went off accidently. That ended the war for me, Jensen and Sullivan. Got home and could not adjust to the noise, smell and speed of the world. Now I have a small farm and some sense of peace. Malowicz had less peace than me but I think he's okay now. Met his wife and kids on Long Island but I can't find him now. That sucks.

I am looking for any information on Joe Foster who served during WW2. I believe I am his daughter. As I am now 62 years old,he is probably deceased but I would just like to know more about him. All that I know is that his was nicknamed "Slim". He was about 5ft 10ins tall and had a gap in his front teeth. He was obviously a good man, who sent money for me until I was fifteen. I just want to know more about him.

my name is José G. Ramos, I am the Vietnam Veteran who began the campaign in 2000 to have a national day of recognition for the Vietnam Veterans, then in 2004, I rode my bicycle from Whittier, CA to Washington DC to ask Congress and the Senate for thier support. Congresswoman Linda T. Sanchez of Norwalk, CA and Senator Boxer also from CA. both introduced their own personal bill to each of the Houses. these bills ask the President, to designate March 30 of every year as the official "Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans Day." now congress has unanimously passed H.Res. 189 and are now preparing to send the bill to the President's desk for signing. what we have done in anticipation of that bill being sent to the president, is we have printed up 5,000 postcards which we are now having signed by everyone we know and any stranger in the street who cares. the last time we did a postcard campaign in 2004, we delivered over 10,000 postcards to DC on our bicycles. when congress is ready to send their bill/letter to the President, we will then send as many postcards as we have had signed up to then to the President's office in support of the Congressional letters. i just wanted to give you an update, because, now that congress has taken the matter to the President, I feel it will not be long now before he signs our bill. which will make March 30, 2008 the first official welcome home day. but what i would like to ask from you is that you help me out with my write in campaign to the president. I have the postcards all printed up, all they need is a signature and a 26 cent stamp. I will be glad to send anyone as many postcards as they think they might need or be able to have their friends and family sign. This campaign is going to become a reality. but now is when I need the help of all of America. it is time to fix the old wrong and together we can do it. I sure hope ya'll can help me out with this by posting it on your web site. God bless you my friends and may God bless. YOU CAN CONTACT ME AT WHVVD@AOL.COM
