I knew many years ago in 1966 when I enlisted in the army and volunteered for the Airborne that I would be part of a special group of men and my only hope was that I would do well and not let them or my family down. I did well with all my training, and while neither being at the top of any particular class I completed everything asked of me.

As most of you know I ended up with 3rd Plt. Cobra/1/327th sometime towards the end of ?66. I was with them for the entire time while Vietnam until medically evacuated to Valley Forge with my third bout of Malaria at the end of my tour.

My biggest scars from my tour didn?t come from bullets or shrapnel, but from the many friends, good friends that I lost, friends I would never see again, my friends, and dreams of our future. It has taken me many years to figure the difference of dreams shared by the men you fought and lived with under hardship conditions and the dreams you dream about with your childhood friends. The latter dreams were just a passing of time while growing up and still invincible and dream the impossible dreams, the dreams in Vietnam with men I loved was more about dreams of struggle to prove to ourselves we would make it and would make it together. More often than I care to remember I discovered it was not to be.

It didn?t take me long after coming back home to see we as soldiers would be the only ones that would care or understand us and what we felt, even old childhood friends that didn?t served look at us a little different. I buried my head in the sand for about 30 years.

I want to fast forward now from my first reunion in Catlett, VA because if you don?t know it, you can always read it on the web site beginnings page.

Now why am I writing all this down? Recently, again as most of you know I had a life threatening situation. A heart attack, and as a result, open heart surgery and 5 by-passes. I was very lucky because it could have gone badly and I could have had a massive final heart attack. I am also very blessed because I have a strong family that loves me and are taking great care of me. But I found out that even after all these years there is still that bond between those I served with, even if not directly the bond was always there. All your prayers, cards, love, and emails have helped to heal me as if you were there with me holding my hand with my family. This is a little mixed up in the telling even for me, but I?m still on some drugs that while help me also keep me a little confused. I am sure that all of you can and will understand my meaning because the as confused as it is the reason I am writing it.

Hawk, got your message about your operation just before sending this, my prayers are with you and you family. From recent past experience you email and mail box will be filled with prayers and good wishes because that?s who we are.
Respectfully,
David J
Cobra/1/327th

I served in A 1/327 (ABU) from 12/85 to 5/87 in the 2nd PLT under ISAAC "The Raging Bull" RUSSELL
I manned a M-60 in the weapons squad with Oscar P. Collins III and Patrick Maxie.
I was green and stupid (Especially when we went to Panama, except I was the only one who got lucky and didn't have to pay for it!)
I remember Spivey going AWOL , and SSG Anthony Alston riding that bicycle drunk.
It was the proudest time of my life!

To Isaac Russell. I will always be sorry for letting you down.

I am seeking assistance in getting information on the war record of Jack M Reber, 2nd Lt. 327th. He served in the 327th in Europe during 1945. I am now married to Jack's widow. She is very interested in getting information that she can pass on to Jack's children. I myself was with the 75th Infantry Division and was wounded on Dec 25, 1944 in the Battle of the Bulge. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I had the distinct privilege of being the Plt Ldr of the 3rd Plt. of CO A from Oct. 1970 - Aug. 1971. The Company CO was Craig (Smoke) Trumbo for whom it was a privilege to serve. The men from the 3rd Platoon were a terrific group of men who served and sacrificed for each other and volunteered, without question or hesitation, to come to the rescue of comrades in trouble. (Remember the CA into the hot LZ on Easter, 1971). I hope the rest of you made it back to the "real world" after I left.

God Bless you and "Thanks"

A big thank you to Ted Gittinger. I had lost my Jump Mary a few years ago and was devistated. It had not left my neck since 1969. Ted worked with my wife so she could make this veterans day extra special. At breakfast yesterday a replacement was put around my neck thanks to Ted, my wife Joyce (who knew how much it meant to me), and also a big thanks to Hannabil who e-mailed me on how to get a replacement. Your some special people.

ATTENTION: Trying to find out if anyone knew SSGT -E6 Mr. Phillip Laframboise well enough to know if he had family in Canada or was Canadian. It says he was from La Mesa, CA but I do know that many Canadians had put down American hometowns in order to serve. I am Canadian and believe we may have been related. Any family members who would know are dead now and cannot help me. If you know anything about this or any of his living relatives please email me. Thank you to all that served, all that gave their lives and the liberties we have because of it. I am truely honoured.

I thank Tim Stubbe for directing me to this website. I served along side of Tim in both Charlie and Echo companies of the 1/327 during 69 and 70. My tour started on Aug.17,1969 and ended a year later. Our best friend, Johnny Compton got us both to volunteer for the sniper team in early 70 and we three served on the same team. Tim and I later put together our own five man teams. I have some great pictures and memories of all my buddies who served with me. Our base camp was at Camp Eagle outside Phu Bai.
I haven't had time to search the site yet but would like to thank who ever took the time and effort to put together this site where we can all share memories and maybe get in touch with those who were part of our past.
Regards,
Jimmy Swindell

I arrived in the Nam Nov66 at Kontum. The Gray Ghost taught me the ropes on our first mission. I then got a prick 25 and humped it the entire time. I of course went through several Platoon leaders. I remember two especially. Lt. Rivello because of May 14 Mothers Day 67 we lost a bunch of good men! I was RTO and luckily made it. I remember 8 KIA and 52 Wounded give or take a couple. I had LT Gooch and he was like the mild mannered reporter but I found he was more. LT. I wish now I had gone to the rear with you. Anyway I made it. Ghost you came to see me in Illinois a couple of years after maybe 70? If you see this call me. I saw your blog online. Anyone that remembers that hellacious day get in touch. Your brother. Zero RTO Oh, Zero because of you Sgt. Baily. Ron Turner

"No Slackers"

Over the years, "No Slackers" from both the 1st & 2nd Battalions have ordered from our Currahee Gift Shop/PX. Check out the new designed products for the 1st & 2nd Battalions, 327th just added to the 3-506th Website Gift Shop/PX at www.currahee.org. Shirts, Mugs, Steins, Hats, etc. can be found there. Thank you for your business. Click on the following link, or type in this address to visit the Gift Shop. http://www.cafepress.com/currahee3rd_506

As many of you know, we had men from the 327th come to us when we activated the 3-506th, we had troopers transferred to the proud 327th in Vietnam during the infusion program and after our battalion stood down in May 1971. We also had some of our brothers killed in action while serving with the 327th. I just finished another book titled "My Gift To You", which includes some of the stories of those Currahees who died while serving in the 327th. You can get the book from our Gift Shop.

One last thing. If anyone has any Screaming Eagle Newspapers from their tour in Vietnam and would loan me any issue that I am missing from my collection, let me know. I am about ready to have another printing of these Screaming Eagle Issues (in book form). Some of you order copies of the 1st Printing. E-mail me if you have any issues. All I need is to borrow issues to have digital scanned and I will return to you.

My brother, PFC ALAN E. WILLIAMS KIA 10/2/67, was with A/1/327 when he was killed in what the Army said was an ambush. At the time(FNG) he was an RTO but don't know which PLT. He was a replacement sent to RVN in Jun 67 from 2/502 101st Ft. Campbell before the 2nd & 3rd Bde's were deployed. He was somewhere around Phu Bai and Chu Lai during the period. Anyone remember a tall, blond, skinny 18 year old from Campbell or RVN? I would be thankful for any info or history about his short life. He used to travel up from Ft. Campbell with his Unit buddies to Bowling Green, Ky and sometimes Chicago to have some fun on his "off time"

This is a follow up to Rich Rios post of Oct.16, 2006, concerning Ernie Moore(may have had a nickname of Goose). Ernie was assigned to B Co./2/327th in July of 1969 until sometime around March-April, 1970 when he was transferred to our unit(3/506/101st/Co. B). Shortly after his arrival, our unit went into Cambodia (Early May, 1970) and Ernie was KIA on 5-10-70 when Co. B was ambushed by a large NVA unit. Ernie's widow was found this year thru our website and attended a reunion. Unfortuneately, we have not located anybody who knew Ernie per he was with our unit only a short period of time. We are hoping that somebody from your unit will remember him per his widow(Candy Moore Sullins) would like to make contact with any friends Ernie had during his time with 2/327th. He was from Michigan. Another identifying feature was a gold front tooth.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Im a 19 year old student writing a paper on why people are claiming to have served in Vietnam when they really dident...In no way am I saying any of you men are claiming this....I would just like to ask anyone to respond as to why they think someone would claim such a thing...from the facts I have just under 3 million men and woman served...But 9 million Americans claimed to have served...That pisses me off and I see my self as to young to even comprehend what you men have been through...So if any of you would like to offer me an opinion on this subject....please..E - mail me...Thank you all for your service...

Looking for anyone who knew Ernest L. Moore, 2/327th, 69 - 70. Ernest was from Michigan. He transferred into our battalion, 3/506th Infantry, a few weeks prior to battalion combat assault into Cambodia 05 May 70. Moore was KIA'd 10 May in Cambodia. We're trying to help his widow learn more about him thru grunts that might have worked with him. No one from 3/506th remembers him because he was with us for only two weeks and then we got virtually wiped out 10 May 70.
Any help is appreciated. WELCOME HOME BROTHERS!! CURRAHEE!!

I went to my 1961 high school class reunion Sept.30. This was my second one, first was 20 yrs ago. When we were ready to leave I saw a guy I was in Boy Scouts with, and at the 25 yr. reunion I attended he told me he was a retiring Army finace officer. I started talking to him and found out he was a platoon leader in A/1/327th Nov. 68 - May 69. What a coinsidence; I arrived in country Dec. 1, 68 and was platoon leader in A/2/327th until Apr.69 I had no idea of any others from my El Cerrito High School were in-country. His name is Steve Donaldson. While we talking Bill McGee came over and said he was in-country as (I believe) a radio/communications expert. We also lost
1st L. Esmond Emerson Snell, April 16, 1968.
I am forwarding this site info to Steve.
What a small and intricate world.

I am writing a memorial for him. I want to be sure I understand the meaning of BASTOGNE.
Bastogne played a major role during the Battle of Bastogne in World War II. On December 21, 1944, the German Army surrounded the city, trapping the U.S. 101st Airborne Division and other units. The 101st's defense of Bastogne was credited with slowing up the Germans' push for the port of Antwerp.

Great site. Just found it by accident. I was with HHC 1/327 from Sept 69 till new years day 72. Double Eagle. Spent my time on all the firebases between Da nang and Phu bai as RTO. Also spent 3 months with my best friend in nam Dan ( IGOR )Kulhanick as a radio relay team in the village at Hi van pass. Was on the pad in Da nang when the Chinook with all the cooks went down. I was waiting to get out for Camp Eagle myself that day. Still see dan ocassionally and saw Bill Smikle another buddy from nam at Fort Riley KS just before I got out. If anyone has had contact with Robert ( Charlie ) Pride, Shortround Debois, Edward Earl Edear ( triple E), The Foots, Bill Smikle, Rick Gray, Jim Lala or any of the other RTO's from HHC 1/327 from sept 69 till jan 1 of 72 let me know.

I am looking for guys that would have been on operation Lamar Plain in
Quang Tri in mid 69.

I was a photo officer with the 221st Signal (company pictorial) and two of

my photographer and I photographed some contact when we joined D company
somewhere in Quang Tri. My photos are at www.azcreative.com/vietport. There
is one shot of a trooper running over the crest of a hill. I was to follow
him shortly thereafter. We were assaulting down a hill and across a rice
paddy which was totally open to enemy fire. There was a brother with a thump

gun that was covering people as they crossed the paddy. I noticed that when
he fired the enemy machine gun would go quiet so I decided I would try for
the berm on the far side the next time he fired. I heard the thump and I was

off and running. I got half way across and hit a slick spot on the dike and
went face down totally exposed. I just laid there until I heard the gunner
fire again and then I made it across the last half. Between taking photos I
wanted to help out with the fight so I decided I would popup and fire a few
rounds. As soon as my head went up I was feeling the conflict between taking

the time to find a target in the tree line and knowing that I was the duck
in the shooting gallery. I got off a couple of shots and my extractor
broke. At first I didn?t realize it was an extractor problem. The adrenaline

high didn?t allow for that kind of detailed analysis. I borrowed a cleaning
rod from the machine gunner and used the weapon muzzle loader style to knock

out the brass after each shot. It only took two shots to convince me this
was a futile activity. With all the activity going on it did not take long
for me to shoot all my film. At that point I had a useless weapon and no
film. The platoon leader asked me if I would lead a group of wounded to the
rear.

We were walked down a shallow ditch and then crawled the rest of the way.
One of the guys was shot in the ass and was worried about his nuts. I was
crawling behind him and he asked me how bad the damage was. Since my face
was almost in his ass I was able to render an accurate report. His family
jewels seemed to be entirely intact, but he lost an ice cream scoop sized
piece of his rear cheek and was bleeding pretty heavily. When we got back to

the rear area, the medics pounced on us. I remember one kept trying to treat

me. Due to air support and ringing ears he could not hear my protests that I

was fine and would he please treat the guy shot in the ass. Then I realized
that the blood from the guy?s butt had been flipped by the grass onto my
face and the medic thought I had a head wound.

All this was brought to mind today when I was in a book store and picked
up a book on the 101st written by two Brits called 101st Airborne In
Vietnam: The Screaming Eagles. The authors are Michael Sharpe and Simon
Dunstan. On page 61, I saw two of my company D photographs both showing the
thump gunner.

If you are in contact with any of the company D folks please as them to
have a look at www.azcreative.com/vietport. They may also be interested in
www.daspo.com and www.combatcamera.org.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best Regards

I currently reside in the Arizona high desert and I enlisted in Seattle, Wa. in 1965. My incountry dates- June 1967-May 1968.. hhc/2/327th originally assigned to heavy weapons platoon. Attached to Hawk LRRP as a Forward Observer/RTO. This is your buddy"slick". I stuck it out until a trip to the ashau with the Hawks in may 68 ended my military career. Went through P school in Phan Rang june 67. Humped all over nam with some of the best airborne soldiers God ever created.
During my time with the LRRPS my call ID was Hawk 1-4. This is some of what I remember:
1. the 10,000lb bomb that was discovered while we were digging in, and the ultimate "HUMBUG" blast that wounded five troopers, myself included and a crashed Huey full of c-4.
2. The NVA officer that was captured by the Hawks and later attempted to escape while I was on guard. A claymore saved my stripes.
3. Setting up an ambush in the cemetary in Hue.
4.The all night fire fight at the saigon airstrip during TET. we held our position with the help of an abandoned D21 catapillar.
5. Having an entire mountain catch on fire as a result of a smoke grenade. This occurred while we were maintaining perimeter security for a new t.o.c. nowhere to go. all of our gear up in smoke, The LT catches a sniper round in the face. he makes it.
6. I was wounded while on patrol with the Hawks in the ashau valley May 31, 1968, I saw the ambush coming, but it was too late. I'm sorry, Vince DeFilipps-NO SLACK

I'm looking for any old 'NO SLACK" boys to met at the "SNOWBIRD IN KISSIMMEE" reunion which is held the 1st week of Feb each year. 6 of us from "D" Company, 2/327th in 1969 & 1970 met up after 35 years in Branson last year. We had a great time after all those years. If interested let me know and look at the SNOWBIRD IN KISSIMMEE reunion information under ther reunions. Even if you can't make the reuniuon, I would be happy to hear from any former 'NO SLACKER" from all years.

I just got a call from SSg. Jerry Norris' daughter the other night. I was able to tell her what a good god fearing man her daddy was. She was only 6 weeks old when he died. She was never told a thing about him, and once had to break into a locked box to even see a photo of him.

We served in the 506 at Campbell for a few years .I did get to meet up with in VN just before he was KIA. I am sorry that after almost 40 years I can't rember if it is Jerri with a G or J.?

To all Cold Steel Members Past and Present. I would like to thank you all for your support and prayers, while this great company continues to write the history that so many have before us. We have been in country for 9 months now and have been very successful in Operation Iraqi Freedom. Our success has come at a price, with the loss of some soldiers. They were great americans, and friends for life. Russ and Faye Thanks for everything. We won't be there this year for the Reunion, but Can count on us next year. Once again Thank YOU ALL.

Hi guys,
In case you don't remember, I was 3rd platoon leader in Abu - 1/327 from June '67 until around Jan-Feb '68. I went back to become ABU xo just before Artavia fell. I am in contact with "Gabby" Thompson who turned me on to your great site. If any of you are still out there and feel like talking, please drop me a line. I miss you all.

I just found this web site. I want to thank you guys for establishing and maintaining it. I have a question that maybe some of my brother abu vets can answer. Sometime in 67 we liberated a prisoner of war camp somewhere in the central highlands. What I remember most were the tiger cages and the filth the viet prisoners were kept in. Also, I remember they killed a pig and ate it with very little cooking. If any of you can fill in the details I would appreciate it.

That coupled with Mothers day hill and our operations in Tam Ky a memories that for some reason pesist.

One other question- has any one heard from John Wayne Boatwright, timmons, smitty, doc ainsworth or boattella. If so, please let me know how to contact them.

Above the Rest,
Gabby

I served with Capt. Abood in the 97th Sig. Bn. 60-63. Too bad EMs cant socialize with Officers. He was my kind of guy. I remember he came back drunk from town one night, and rolled a new Corvette. (He got bored, and went back to Airborne) I'm glad he made it safe through Vietnam, but am sorry to hear he has passed away.

Just finished Doug Bergman's "Names I Can't Remember"...hard to describe...was an ABU after 'Nam, but feel that any soldier past or present could relate to this book. Having experienced some of the gut wrenching episodes while trying to find myself that he describes in his book, I find it refreshing that Doug stepped forth and opened his life up for others. I think after reading, folks might be encouraged to look inside and realize that life itself can be a battle, and that there are others out there that are willing to stand alongside and face the storm with you...thanks for having the PX, and thanks for especially for the book "Names I Can't Remember", worth every penny!

My brother served in Viet Nam from July '69-July '70. He was killed in a car crash in April of '88. He never really talked about the war, just about the friends he'd made and how close all you guys were. I guess when you face death every day for a year you just grasp and hold on! I have contacted several of his friends and am very grateful for your site and visit it often. God bless all of you vets and it breaks my heart that you guys didn't come home to a heros welcome. It's not that I approve of the current war, I feel that it's gone on long enough, but I have respect for every soldier that has fought in every war. My dad was in WWII, wounded at the Bulge, and I would love to hear those war stories just one more time. Take care of yourselves and remember that you are all heros in our minds and hearts. Later, Joyce

Russ and I would like to commend two ladies and their support group from Simi Valley, Ca. who have been sending packages to C Company 1/327th for some time now. Paula and Melissa have gathered many items together with the help of a large group of military supporters and mailed them to the Cobra's and have helped to keep the morale of this unit high due to their support. Paula had requested names to send packages to from Fred Brander who her husband served with in Vietnam and ever since have been faithful in their support. Their daughters collected many Girl Scout cookies and they were very welcome by these young soldiers who serve our country and are so happy to hear from someone in the States who care about their morale and well being. Thank you Paula and Melissa and the folks in Simi Valley who have been so giving to the Cold Steel Cobras.

I just read the write up about Ed and Terry Kurth, and I was wondering why it sounded so familiar. I am the FRG (Family Readiness Group) Leader for BCo 1-327th INF. The current CO, CPT Lewis, wrote that in the latest edition of our newsletter. I just have to state that they are absolutely wonderful people, and they have done so much for our guys. It is tough being a military wife to a deployed soldier, but with the love and support that myself, and the men of BCo have gotten, it makes it much easier. I want to personally thank Ed and Terry for everything that they have and continue to do. I would also like the thank Don Dornell. Without his support, and the support of Burlingame, CA, the men of BCo would not be as well off as they are. THANK YOU!!

Stay safe Bushmasters.

Wild Bill asked me to post this, so doggone it, here it is.

This message from Sgt E-5 Bill Smith "ABU" 1/327th 67-68 "SERTS" 68-69

This SITREP goes out to all the "ABU" who were with A-CO 1/327th from 1967-1972 in the NAM. Those of you who were with ABU know the story of Joe Artavia. The city of San Mateo ,and Joes sister Linda .who later married Joes Platoon leader Lt. Steve Patterson. Steve was wounded the same day that Joe was KIA. Joe had written to his sister Linda in San Mateo sometime around Christmas of 67. ABUs, A-Co. morale was at the lowest it had ever been. Joe asked Linda if she would go to the Mayor and the City Council of San Mateo and see if the people of his Home Town of San Mateo would maybe just write to the guys in A-Co. Linda did just that and the end result was that the City Council and the citizens of San Mateo stepped up to the Plate and went "ALL THE WAY" by adopting A-Co. Sadly and to a great loss to us all. OurBrother Joe Artavia met his "RENDEZVOUS with DESTINY " three months later and was KIA in Thua Thien , March 24th 1968. We all know that in those days of war protests and the general publics attitude towards the war . Adopting a company of Airborne Infantry was not the most popular thing to be doing. The City of San Mateo and it's great citizens only saw that we were hurting and came to support us when we needed that the most. God Bless San Mateo,Calif. Joe Artavia and Linda. We started receiving Care Packages and mail from total strangers on a regular basis. Those of us who were there in 68 knew what that meant to all of us! The City of San Mateo sent us all invitations to come to San Mateo ,if we wanted to, once we arrived back in "THE WORLD".as the Citys Honored Guests. Those of you who did ,know and remember what that was like! The City of San Mateo sent us all The Key To The City,and special Medallions. The City requested permission from the Army to send Linda to Vietnam to bring us gifts and to see the troopers of "ABU" They finally recieved permission and Linda came to Vietnam in 68. Jim Grainger and I were,by then on our second tour at "SERTS" known to all those that went through it as "P-School. It had been moved from Phan Rhang to Bien Hoa. We were there as instructors in 68-69. We had wanted to return to possibly help save as many Brothers as we could with better preperation prior to going North. We were summoned to meet Linda after she arrived in Bein Hoa and honored with orders to escort her North to Phu Bai and out to the firebases to meet with the ABU troopers she had come all that way to see. In 1972 when "ABU" left Vietnam. The City of San Mateo asked for and recieved permission to have the Company come to San Mateo as a unit. They held a parade through town and turne out in mass to honor our service and Scarafices made in Vietnam. The company was treated like Royalty ! Since then, Linda has worked tirelessly to carry on her promise to her brother Joe and carry on the legacy of the adoption of 'ABU". Linda set up "ASA" , Americans Supporting Americans. She has worked all these years to find cities that would be willing to step up to the plate and adopt units that were going into harms way or not! She has been encouraging many cities to adopt units from all Branches of the Service and do for them what San Mateo had done for A-Co. all those years ago and still does to this day ! "ASA" is a NON -Profit organization and Linda has flown all over this graet country of ours to meet with City Mayors to encourage them and their citizens to adopt units. She has done this at her own expense and with the help of private donations. My fellow "ABU BROTHERS" . It is time for us to step up to the plate to help Linda and show our appreciation not only for us ,but what she is still doing for our young Brother Warriors today. Linda was just recently summoned to Washington D.C. to meet with President Bush to be Honored for all that she has done for Military units over all these years. AWESOME !!! I come to you and ask that you join with me in donating to this Great Organization and show our appreciation for not only what they have done for us ,but also what they continue to do for so many today I have personally set aside part of my VA Disability (70% PTSD) to be donated each month to this Great Organization and what it does for so many of our Brothers in Uniform today. My Brother "ABU" Warrior Brothers won't you join with me and show our thanks and appreciation for all that has been done for us by sending your donations to this great cause. Please send all donations to: Americans Supporting Americans P.O. Box 574 Pacific Palisades , CA. 90272

Lindas phone no# is 310-459-5625 Email Address is: artavia101@earthlink.net


Thank you all! "ABU" "ABOVE THE REST FOREVER" God Bless America and Protect her Warrior Sons! Bill Smith "Wild Bill",

Looking for anyone who served in Ashau Valley, PhuBi area during Spring and Summer of 1966. We lost a very special soldier there, May 18, 1966, and would like to know more about the area, i.e. the bigger picture surrounding all that occurred there. The soldier's name was PFC Michael Paul Randall of Los Angeles. He was a Radio Operator assigned to a Ranger Battalion in that area. Unfortunately, that is the extent of my information.

I was assigned to C Company 1/327th Airborne Infantry from May of 1966 to July 1967. Was called by some as SuperTroop! Served with Capts Moody and Hillard, the first Sergeants name was Benson. We called him Benefit Ben because he was the reenlistment Sergeant at Fort Bragg. He was killed in Action (helicopter shoot down) in March or April, may have been May of 1967. The XOs name was Lt. Vega. You may contact me if you served at that time. There was also 1st Sergeant Branch. He loved to sing he and spec 4 Thomas.

In Feb 1968 I was assigned to E company 1/327th in Mortars then went out to the Tiger Force until injured in June of 1968.
I remember Sgt Knott and Michael Corrigan and Lt. Raymond, Woody Riddle. I just heard that Sgt Knott died last year. He was very good to me helping me learn to 'stay alert and stay alive'. I would like to reconnect with anyone I was with at the time and make new contacts and also would like the email address of the Tigers in Iraq. I have an PO mail address but there's nothing like email.
Take care everyone.

Phone number is still 317 484 2547, address has also stayed the same. Was just checking out the home page and went through the names of Troopers and came upon a picture of Sergeant James Cotten, Jr. If there is anyone out there that is in contact with any of his family members please pass on this message to them.

Sgt. Cotten was a fine man as well as a fine soldier. He was well respected by all that knew
him. I remember him extremely well, which is funny,as Ihave tried to block out my time in Vietnam out of my heart and mind as many of us have tried to do. So he was a special man.

I am looking forward to seeing those able too in
September in Atlanta.

Hello 327th,

Thank you for your website and posted history. My wife's grandfather, Sgt Clark T. Potter, was a member of 'I' Company, 327th Infantry, during WWI. I even found his name on a unit roster that was posted. Thank you for adding some long looked for information to our family history. If anyone knows of any additional information regarding 'I' Company during WWI, I would love to obtain a copy.

With great respect,

The Bush administration has proposed to cut veterans benefits to the bone.

There are two things you can do to help stop this.

1. Find out the address of your elected representatives and let them know you will not stand for this.

2. Pass this on to every veteran you can and help get them involved.

You earned these benefits the hard way, your elected representatives are your employees not your ?BOSSES?, and their job is to represent YOU and your best interest.

You are the ones who put your ass on the line to defend this country and you have earned everything you can get from your ungrateful government. DON?T let this slap in your face happen! Take the time to send a message to the government you risked your life to protect and let them know if they want to keep their jobs you will not tolerate your benefits messed with.

I am submitting on behalf of my husband. He does not want to think of the past---- He has built a life for himself as a Veterinarian and he does not wish to think or talk of the past. I sleep with this man, and I will say that he has terrible dreams to this day. He says that the dreams have nothing to do with Nam, but he does say that he dreams of tunnels that are filling up with water. I asked if he was a "Rat" and he said no, he was not. Please get back to me---- Frank was in the 101st Airborn in the late 1960's. Frank Nelson
