My high school buddy Alfred Saturn "Butch" Najar, Jr. was killed in action on February 24th, 1968. I know he was with the 101st Airborne, 327 Infantry Regiment, C Company or at least I am pretty sure that was his outfit. My question is WHERE was Butch killed while in country? Butch and I were very close friends at Ball High School in Galveston, Texas. We joined the service the same time. He went Army, I went Marine Corp. If anyone could help me with this info I would deeply appreciate it. Go Army - and Semper Fi

I'm the son of John "Jack" Tierney, a deceased (1979) wounded veteren of D-Day in the 101st Airborne, 327th Glider Division. I'm trying to locate any living veterens of that unit who may've known him or was in the unit to hear stories(as my father never shared them).
Thank you very much for any help!

I was with the HHT 3rd Sqdn 5th Cav and provided support to the 101st. We went through Bastogne on May 9 and we arrived at Blaze on May 10. My command track originally settled at the top where the 18th Surg Med Tent was set up. Myself and the guys on my track helped offload some of the worst of the wounded during the first couple of days of HH. Then we were moved down closer to the river where a hole was dug out and we parked our track until we pulled out in Sept. I left for rear support at Evans in late August. Our "A" Troop entered the valley in late June and a few of my friends ended up wounded. Anyway, my hat is off to all who served in the 101st.

It's official...I'm finally a resident of Dover, Tennessee now. My trailer arrived Friday at dark and I finished unloading today at noon. Travis Shattle got here too late to help. I'm told that it was an accident.
I'm in a dry county in the Bible Belt. We have deer, turkey, Black Snakes and Box Turtles. What more does a man need besides a garden? It looks like the end of the rainbow to Mikki and me. I hope to see many of you in Crossville next year. I haven't made a reunion since 2006.
Ya'all need to check out Linda Brooks' site 'Digital Beauty Designs'. She posted a lot of the Welcome Home Vietnam Vets pics. Her guest book entry is a couple prior to this message.
If you haven't already read it, get a copy of R. C. Morris' book "Ether Zone" about the clandestine but very real SF Delta Force. It was advertised inside the last 101st Screaming Eagle Magazine. That book is hard to put down.
Ray (R. C.)Morris is 327th alumni Roger Morris' brother.

You can see an assortment of photographs from the Week of the Eagle Vietnam Vets ceremony held at Ft. Campbell, August 16, 2009 on my blog
http://digitalbeautydesigns.blogspot.com/
It is my understanding that so many vets registered that they had to hold the same ceremony 3 times to accommodate all of them. My hat is off to the Commander and Staff who made this event possible

I went to High School with Erik Miller and have recently found his page on this site. My husband Bobby Brooks, was an Army Medic with the 15th Medical Battalion, 1st Cav Division, Airmobile, An Khe 65-66. We recently attended the moving ceremony at Ft Campbell's week of the Eagle held to honor all Vietnam Veterans. I was moved to tears as were most of the attendees, vets and family alike. How proud and grateful we are for Ft. Campbell giving these men the Dignity and Honor they so rightly deserve. It was a true healing mission for those involved.

Talked to Donnie Ulmer Jr who e-mailed me from Iraq and stated that his Dad Donnie Sr. was taken by Agent Orange a few years ago. Donnie Sr. served with me in C 2/327th 1969 and part of 1970. Donnie ran the beer garden after getting a rear job for a couple of months there at Phu Bai. I saw where Doc Art Erickson has checked in with us. Good to hear from you. Have been off line a good while but am back and have made contact with Erick Miller who lives here in Tennessee now. Hope to Hook up with Erick. Take care and sorry I missed the Ft. Campbell deal due to health reasons but will be back on line now to see and hear from my brothers.No Slack Doc Tom Burton VN 2/327th 69-70 HHq, C and D companies

I see a lot of VN vets on here, so I thought I would add a blog from a Desert Storm vet. I just wanted to say "Hooah!" to all former "Above the Rest" brothers. I served with B 1-327 from 90 thru 95 & was deployed during Desert Sheild/Storm with them. If there are any Bushmasters out there who remember me, give me a shout.

I went over on the boat, was in "A" Btry 2/320 Arty. I really disliked being in artillery so when one of our FO sections were all killed in Sept. 65, I volunteered for the FO section and was attached to 1/327 for the remainder of my time. I was on the truck that hit a land mine on Highway 13 (Thunder Road) on Dec. 9, 65. I was proud to have served with the 1/327

I was in the 1/506th at Currahee in 1969. I read the account of the last days there. I too was on the last shit hook out of the base. Does anyone remember how hard it rained that day waiting for the shit hooks? And the puff that flew out perimeter the night before? I remember all of us huddling together when the rain set in and the choppers could not get us. I remeber being told to haul butt out the back side towards FSB Blaze I think it was if we got hit by ground. Then the rain cleared and the two shithooks came in, got us and took us back to evans. I went back to the world a few days later.
Love to talk to anyone else that was there that day.

Depravation could have been the worst thing. Sleeping rough, banana leaves stuck under helmet bands to keep the rain off while it pounds your body. The insects crawling into the dry area, investigating, probing, biting. The mud as slick and thick as petroleum jelly. The only break from the misery are the intrusive thoughts of Death waiting in the next heartbeat to carry another comrade Home. Who will Death take. The brain slaming that door shut with locks, chains, and nails that is wont be you. You who must raise up and bark death to the others. Yelling, Screaming, Charging. Hoping the madness stops before your heart does. And always the rain falling; pelting the earth and everything in its path. As tiny hammers reshaping the world from sunshine and flowers to mud, blood, crushed plants and humans. Reshaping minds with memories not intended for people. 1/327 Cold Steel Cobras 66-67 ATR

My father, Donald Lafayette Coe served in this unit in Vietnam. He never went into much detail about his time in Vietnam, which I understand. I knew he was a door gunner and was deaf in one ear because of it. I can confirm he was in country in 1970-1971 and another earlier tour which I do not have the time frames on. I am sad to say that he passed away on June 13th, 2009 at the age of 61. He stayed in the Army after Vietnam and served 23 years with pride, retiring as a 1st. Sgt. I just would like to get the word out that he is going to be buried at Arlington National Cemetery on July 15th at 10am. He wanted this so very much and considered it an honor above all others to be buried with his fallen comrades and friends. If anyone remembers Donald Coe and can make the funeral, then you will be welcomed as family. Any friend of my fathers is a friend of mine. I am very proud of his service and others who have sacrificed so much for our freedoms. I respect what he gave and loved him very much. Thank you for your time, Marselles L. Coe

Greetings: Very interested to find this website. I was searching for information on David Barduson. I am from Davids hometown of Appleton, MN. I was still in high school when David was killed in Vietnam. I played taps at his funeral. David was the hero I never knew. I remember reading about him in our local paper about his activities in Vietnam. I so wanted to be like him, join the military and go to Vietnam. I was just sick when I read he was killed. I was very honored to play taps at his funeral. He was the hero I never knew. I ended up joining the Marines in the summer of 1971 and although I volunteered for duty in Vietnam, I never did get shipped there. My MOS was that of a Field Radio Operator. A few years back I wrote to his parents. I told them I had a rubbing of Davids name from the Vietnam Wall under the glass on my office desk and that I think of David daily. They did not remember me or that I played taps at Davids funeral. But, they did know my parents and ate at their small cafe in Appleton often. They wanted to meet me, but unfortunately both died before I ever got the chance. They were so appreciative that I wrote them a letter. I wanted you, his former comrades, to know that David is not forgotten. Thank you for your service! Best, Dan Schwandt

Today is Flag Day! It started out poorly for me at 2am when I drove through my home town; Soldotna, Alaska and started counting flags that were left out in the dark (Yes it does get dark here for a couple of hours). I stopped counting at five dozen, all were flags put out by the Kenai Peninsula Borough on public property. There were just as many flags left out in front of residences without illumination. This has offended me for years but the borough mayor insists that it is proper since he teaches flag protocol to the Boy Scouts (He didnt have the courage to serve his country)! If this offends you please boycott our rich fishing and tourist industry until some action is taken. The phone # for the borough is 907-262-4441. Soldotnas city offices: 907-262-9107.
The Sunday Peninsula Clarian (A leftist Gannet rag)today published a paper flag with advertising all over it. Gannet insists that even if it is against the flag code that it is not flag desecration. What a bunch of dung!
Well enough carping! I would like to give a shout of "No Slack" to my platoon buddies "Buzzard" Harry Clive, & Joe Won. Also Jack Page who set off the trip flares on the RR bridge on Hwy 1, just below Tommahawk to celebrate leaving RVN (They made him saddle up the next day and hump out to the French Bunker as punishment, and "Slick" from Cleveland.
I love this site, it is like a (past) lifeline.

40 years ago today (6/14/69) the NVA tried to overrun & destroy the Tactical Operations Center on FSB Berchtesgarden. Between 4 AM & 6 AM. Unofficially we lost 17 KIA & 60 wounded (official reports are lower). I wrote in 5 years ago looking for any of the 10 other survivors from my platoon (1st platoon, Co B , 2/327) who might still be around & got 2 responses plus many others from those who were there or witnessed the fight from other FSBs in the area. I have always resented the fact that every report concerning the battle never mentions the fact that we were there & suffered so many casualties from msssive enemy mortar fire. To the best of my knowledge none of the men of my platoon were ever decorated even though they suffered the brunt of the enemy ground assault. Over time I have forgotten so many of the names but I wish to single out two who deserved recognition: Connie Mack Patton of Cowpens , S.C. & Henry Rael of Alburquerque, N.M. If there are any more survivors still around Id like to hear from you. Please take a moment to remember those who were killed & wounded on that day.

Depravation could have been the worst thing. Sleeping rough, banana leaves stuck under helmet bands to keep the rain off while it pounds your body. The insects crawling into the dry area, investigating, probing, biting. The mud as slick and thick as petroleum jelly. The only break from the misery are the intrusive thoughts of Death waiting in the next heartbeat to carry another comrade Home. Who will Death take. The brain slaming that door shut with locks, chains, and nails that is wont be you. You who must raise up and bark death to the others. Yelling, Screaming, Charging. Hoping the madness stops before your heart does. And always the rain falling; pelting the earth and everything in its path. As tiny hammers reshaping the world from sunshine and flowers to mud, blood, crushed plants and humans. Reshaping minds with memories not intended for people. 1/327 Cold Steel Cobras 66-67 ATR

My father, Donald Lafayette Coe served in this unit in Vietnam. He never went into much detail about his time in Vietnam, which I understand. I knew he was a door gunner and was deaf in one ear because of it. I can confirm he was in country in 1970-1971 and another earlier tour which I do not have the time frames on. I am sad to say that he passed away on June 13th, 2009 at the age of 61. He stayed in the Army after Vietnam and served 23 years with pride, retiring as a 1st. Sgt. I just would like to get the word out that he is going to be buried at Arlington National Cemetery on July 15th at 10am. He wanted this so very much and considered it an honor above all others to be buried with his fallen comrades and friends. If anyone remembers Donald Coe and can make the funeral, then you will be welcomed as family. Any friend of my fathers is a friend of mine. I am very proud of his service and others who have sacrificed so much for our freedoms. I respect what he gave and loved him very much. Thank you for your time, Marselles L. Coe

Greetings: Very interested to find this website. I was searching for information on David Barduson. I am from Davids hometown of Appleton, MN. I was still in high school when David was killed in Vietnam. I played taps at his funeral. David was the hero I never knew. I remember reading about him in our local paper about his activities in Vietnam. I so wanted to be like him, join the military and go to Vietnam. I was just sick when I read he was killed. I was very honored to play taps at his funeral. He was the hero I never knew. I ended up joining the Marines in the summer of 1971 and although I volunteered for duty in Vietnam, I never did get shipped there. My MOS was that of a Field Radio Operator. A few years back I wrote to his parents. I told them I had a rubbing of Davids name from the Vietnam Wall under the glass on my office desk and that I think of David daily. They did not remember me or that I played taps at Davids funeral. But, they did know my parents and ate at their small cafe in Appleton often. They wanted to meet me, but unfortunately both died before I ever got the chance. They were so appreciative that I wrote them a letter. I wanted you, his former comrades, to know that David is not forgotten. Thank you for your service! Best, Dan Schwandt

Today is Flag Day! It started out poorly for me at 2am when I drove through my home town; Soldotna, Alaska and started counting flags that were left out in the dark (Yes it does get dark here for a couple of hours). I stopped counting at five dozen, all were flags put out by the Kenai Peninsula Borough on public property. There were just as many flags left out in front of residences without illumination. This has offended me for years but the borough mayor insists that it is proper since he teaches flag protocol to the Boy Scouts (He didnt have the courage to serve his country)! If this offends you please boycott our rich fishing and tourist industry until some action is taken. The phone # for the borough is 907-262-4441. Soldotnas city offices: 907-262-9107.
The Sunday Peninsula Clarian (A leftist Gannet rag)today published a paper flag with advertising all over it. Gannet insists that even if it is against the flag code that it is not flag desecration. What a bunch of dung!
Well enough carping! I would like to give a shout of "No Slack" to my platoon buddies "Buzzard" Harry Clive, & Joe Won. Also Jack Page who set off the trip flares on the RR bridge on Hwy 1, just below Tommahawk to celebrate leaving RVN (They made him saddle up the next day and hump out to the French Bunker as punishment, and "Slick" from Cleveland.
I love this site, it is like a (past) lifeline.

40 years ago today (6/14/69) the NVA tried to overrun & destroy the Tactical Operations Center on FSB Berchtesgarden. Between 4 AM & 6 AM. Unofficially we lost 17 KIA & 60 wounded (official reports are lower). I wrote in 5 years ago looking for any of the 10 other survivors from my platoon (1st platoon, Co B , 2/327) who might still be around & got 2 responses plus many others from those who were there or witnessed the fight from other FSBs in the area. I have always resented the fact that every report concerning the battle never mentions the fact that we were there & suffered so many casualties from msssive enemy mortar fire. To the best of my knowledge none of the men of my platoon were ever decorated even though they suffered the brunt of the enemy ground assault. Over time I have forgotten so many of the names but I wish to single out two who deserved recognition: Connie Mack Patton of Cowpens , S.C. & Henry Rael of Alburquerque, N.M. If there are any more survivors still around Id like to hear from you. Please take a moment to remember those who were killed & wounded on that day.

His name was Steve "Smiley" McKenzie.He was part of the Pathfinder Platoon of the 101st Airborne Division in Vietnam. I know he served during the dates of Sept. 1968 to April 1969 but I am not sure of other dates. I know he was at Camp Eagle, he did basic training at Fort Leonardwood, followed by Advance Infantry training at Fort Benning, Georgia. He kept a journal while in Vietnam, so I know some of the names of people he served with. Some are nicknames: Stack, McGibbon, Metz, Poncho, Sergeant Bolin, Guerro, and others. If anyone might know of my father I would really love to speak with you. Thank you.

I am trying to find anyone who might have known my father who served in the Vietnam War. His name was Steve "Smiley" McKenzie.He was part of the Pathfinder Platoon of the 101st Airborne Division in Vietnam. I know he served during the dates of Sept. 1968 to April 1969 but I am not sure of other dates. I know he was at Camp Eagle, he did basic training at Fort Leonardwood, followed by Advance Infantry training at Fort Benning, Georgia. He kept a journal while in Vietnam, so I know some of the names of people he served with. Some are nicknames: Stack, McGibbon, Metz, Poncho, Sergeant Bolin, Guerro, and others. If anyone might know of my father I would really love to speak with you. Thank you.

The Website continues to improve, looks great!!!
Had several long chats with HCSM of the Regiment Joe Bossi at the Static Line Reunion. He tells me that the planning for Week of the Eagles is well underway and it is shaping up to be a great time.
Right now I believe I am correct in saying that WOE kicks off with unit events and competitions on Friday 14 August. Those events will continue through the weekend and really kick into high gear the following week. Final schedules are still being worked but it appears major events will be taking place starting on Tuesday the 18th culminating with the Division Review on Thursday the 20th and a giant barbecue that evening!!! Remember we vets also get a chance to Pass in Review before the Division does its thing on the 20th.
This is our opportunity to show our thanks to the Active Duty members of our Regiment for all they are doing to keep us free and to prosecute the War on Islamic Radicalism/Terrorism. Yea, I know that may not be very PC in Washington these days but as most of you know I have never been one to back away reality. Lets all plan on getting down to Fort Campbell for the WOE and showing our soldiers how much we appreciate their sacrifices for our nation. It doesnt matter when you served with the Bastogne Brigade, paratroope, gliderman or air assault soldier we are members of the CLUB and earned that designation the hard way. Hope to see as many of you as can make it at the WOE.
Remember, its ALL ABOUT THE CLUB!
God Bless the USA and God Bless our servicemen and women throughout the world.
Airborne - Air Assault, ALL THE WAY!
Larry Redmond, DMOR, Bastogne Brigade

Ed Freeman
Youre an 19 year old kid. Youre critically wounded, and dying in the jungle in the Ia Drang Valley , 11-14-1965, LZ X-ray, Vietnam . Your infantry unit is outnumbered 8 - 1, and the enemy fire is so intense, from 100 or 200 yards away, that your own Infantry Commander has ordered the MediVac helicopters to stop coming in.
Youre lying there, listening to the enemy machine guns, and you know youre not getting out. Your family is 1/2 way around the world, 12,000 miles away, and youll never see them again. As the world starts to fade in and out, you know this is the day.
Then, over the machine gun noise, you faintly hear that sound of a helicopter, and you look up to see an un-armed Huey, but it doesnt seem real, because no Medi-Vac markings are on it..
Ed Freeman is coming for you. Hes not Medi-Vac, so its not his job, but hes flying his Huey down into the machine gun fire, after the Medi-Vacs were ordered not to come.
Hes coming anyway.
And he drops it in, and sits there in the machine gun fire, as they load 2 or 3 of you on board.
Then he flies you up and out through the gunfire, to the Doctors and Nurses.
And, he kept coming back.... 13 more times..... And took about 30 of you and your buddies out, who would never have gotten out.
Medal of Honor Recipient, Ed Freeman,died last Wednesday at the age of 80, in Boise , ID ......May God rest his soul......
I bet you didnt hear about this heros
passing, but we sure were told a whole
bunch about some Hip-Hop Coward
beating the crap out of his "girlfriend"
Medal of Honor Winner
Ed Freeman!
Shame on the American Media

Late Sept. 68 a Huey dropped a buddy from infantry school, Guidry from Alabama, and me off at FB Bastogne to begin our assignments with 2/327. I was assigned to Co B and my Lt. pointed to a hill "Your squad is at the top of rocket hill!" Joe Won came down and got me and cases of ammo, it was a butt kicking climb up. I met the squad and was sent back down with the other "Cherry" Reb to get C-rats, more butt kicking climb back up. Now so many years later I wonder if the Re-up Bird and the F...-you Lizard really existed or were they just some smart ass?

I was in NO SLACK 2/327 1999-2001. Went to Kosovo with them in 2000. Checking in I guess due to the suprising amount of history in regards to this unit. You dont think about it much until its gone. Best of luck to all who served past and present in 327. Keep it alive, especially you younger Soldiers.

Served with C and D companies from 3/68 until 6/69.
I was attached from the 1/326 Engineers.
Started in country at Song Be, then moved north during Tet and finally Ashau.
Was wounded in Ashau.
I could not have served with a better group of "grunts".
I will never forget Ashau. Hopefully, one day, I will quit dreaming about it.
I will never forget the days humping. The nights of guard duty in the boonies. You know, a few hours on and a few off. To only get up and hump again.
And to think our reward was a stand down now and then.

The Website continues to improve, looks great!!!
Had several long chats with HCSM of the Regiment Joe Bossi at the Static Line Reunion. He tells me that the planning for Week of the Eagles is well underway and it is shaping up to be a great time.
Right now I believe I am correct in saying that WOE kicks off with unit events and competitions on Friday 14 August. Those events will continue through the weekend and really kick into high gear the following week. Final schedules are still being worked but it appears major events will be taking place starting on Tuesday the 18th culminating with the Division Review on Thursday the 20th and a giant barbecue that evening!!! Remember we vets also get a chance to Pass in Review before the Division does its thing on the 20th.
This is our opportunity to show our thanks to the Active Duty members of our Regiment for all they are doing to keep us free and to prosecute the War on Islamic Radicalism/Terrorism. Yea, I know that may not be very PC in Washington these days but as most of you know I have never been one to back away reality. Lets all plan on getting down to Fort Campbell for the WOE and showing our soldiers how much we appreciate their sacrifices for our nation. It doesnt matter when you served with the Bastogne Brigade, paratroope, gliderman or air assault soldier we are members of the CLUB and earned that designation the hard way. Hope to see as many of you as can make it at the WOE.
Remember, its ALL ABOUT THE CLUB!
God Bless the USA and God Bless our servicemen and women throughout the world.
Airborne - Air Assault, ALL THE WAY!

Ed Freeman
Youre an 19 year old kid. Youre critically wounded, and dying in the jungle in the Ia Drang Valley , 11-14-1965, LZ X-ray, Vietnam . Your infantry unit is outnumbered 8 - 1, and the enemy fire is so intense, from 100 or 200 yards away, that your own Infantry Commander has ordered the MediVac helicopters to stop coming in.
Youre lying there, listening to the enemy machine guns, and you know youre not getting out. Your family is 1/2 way around the world, 12,000 miles away, and youll never see them again. As the world starts to fade in and out, you know this is the day.
Then, over the machine gun noise, you faintly hear that sound of a helicopter, and you look up to see an un-armed Huey, but it doesnt seem real, because no Medi-Vac markings are on it..
Ed Freeman is coming for you. Hes not Medi-Vac, so its not his job, but hes flying his Huey down into the machine gun fire, after the Medi-Vacs were ordered not to come.
Hes coming anyway.
And he drops it in, and sits there in the machine gun fire, as they load 2 or 3 of you on board.
Then he flies you up and out through the gunfire, to the Doctors and Nurses.
And, he kept coming back.... 13 more times..... And took about 30 of you and your buddies out, who would never have gotten out.
Medal of Honor Recipient, Ed Freeman,died last Wednesday at the age of 80, in Boise , ID ......May God rest his soul......
I bet you didnt hear about this heros
passing, but we sure were told a whole
bunch about some Hip-Hop Coward
beating the crap out of his "girlfriend"
Medal of Honor Winner
Ed Freeman!

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 was in Nam aug 70 aug 71, E company 2/327 mortars. Nick name Buddha. while in Nam, I got a Huey tail rotor chain. I have worn it for over 34 years. the only times it has come off my wrist was if it needed some TLC. been through several operations. the docs said take it off. I say it doesnt come off. my shrink at the VA says its my guilt from Nam. maybe it is but now it is in bad shape. I have been at the flightline at Fort Campbell during the last reunion and asked all the mechanics it they have a piece of chain. none of the crews had one. I have contacted many other places but none had any. I am asking if my brothers know of anyone who may have a piece of of rotor chain.

I just droped in to say hi and I am still alive,
but then nothing ever changes about me. I am still alone and PTSD is some kind of mixed nuts.
but all is not what it seems to be ? I am still
dug in deep behind the wire. I told my wife if I and when I make my last stand-to, just dump me
in my foxhole and fill it in. Its hard to believe

Kelly Boyles is an example of all that is good and decent in this country. Thank you Kelly for raising a fine son who bravely put his life on the line; God bless you! Her son can always have the satisfaction that when duty called, he answered with the support of his family! John Luke Boyle and his brothers in arms will always be "Above The Rest"! I have always been proud to have served in RVN 68, with 2/327th CoB...No Slack!

Hi, again! I originally posted a note on this site 10/07...page 17 I think...asking if anyone was a person of prayer to remember my son who was currently serving in Iraq with C-Co 1/327th INF. Now I would like to thank all of you who were faithful in that request...as he served 15 months at Patrol Base Woodcock and returned 11/08 without physical injury! Thanks be to God, Protecter of us all! I am proud of my soldier...they were on the front line this deployment...it wasnt easy and Im sure, not pleasant at times. I have posted his photo on www.soldierwall.com His name is John Luke Boyles...page 57...line...849...photo # 6 Page 57..line...849..photo#7 is Ryan Campbell his best friend...C-Co 2/327th INF NO SLACK! I have some photos on my profile on myspace in my "Soldier" albumn. My profile is public if you want to check it out: www.myspace.com/kellyboyles1962 Thanks to ALL of you who have served...carry on, soldiers!
