I grew up with Sp4 James E. Bush, killed in action in March of 1966. He always had a smile and never an enemy. Erick Miller, thanks for having met. I too was a Screaming Eagle but stateside. I served with Col. Hackworth when he was with The HERD. Hell of a man! Some may not have liked him, but he KNEW his business and how to keep you alive. Those were and still are the ones' to follow men. AIRBORNE ALL THE WAY SIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My daughter's boyfriend Sgt. Anthoney Maduena is with the 327 HHC recon serving in Iraq until March 2004. Communication has gotten better there, which makes all the difference in his morale. Can't imagine what it was like for all of you during the Vietnam war, especially with the lack of support you guys faced from the country in general. I was too young then to have any appreciation for what you guys did. I now have tremendous respect for all who serve and have served, and want to say thank you for your sacrifices on behalf of our country. You do or have done what most cannot or will not. You are not forgotten! God bless you all!
