“Veteran Buddy Finder”, is a Facebook site, and could be another resource to assist in locating others, as I notice many here are reaching out .

Thank you for renewing this site. I am wondering if the photos submitted to the previous site were saved, and are available for reposting here. Thanks

James,
We're re-posting pictures every day. Specifically, what are you searching for?
Although we may not have all the old photo files, we do have a lot. Send me an e-mail (hannibal@327infantry.org) and give me a heads-up. I might be able to direct you where to find them or maybe get new pictures from you.
ATR & NS!
Hannibal

"Hawk Recon" will be available Jan 2023 at the latest...but pre orders are going on now on Amazon, Pen and Sword and almost every book store in the world!
I can still add info.!
The big mystery right now is: where did A company,2/327th extract from the AShau valley on August 18th,, 1968? This is huge! This is big history because it could have been from atop Hamburger Hill, Dong ap bia.! We were very close and headed that way just a few days prior!
We landed near a fire base right back in the valley.
I need the numbers, the coordinates! OR one of the several hill tops next to Hamburger Hill that were part of the future battle area in 1969!
Info. Is in battalion logs, division records etc!
Thank you and No Slack...! Doc Osgood
Ps. I was almost killed within a couple of clicks of Dong Ap Bia as was another co. A trooper KIA so having missed theHamburger Hill battle would have been a mute point I guess you could say!

Hannibal, Yankee Jim, the site is looking great! Thanks for not giving up after the technology failures.
This message is for the brothers of C/2/327, especially the 4th platoon. I usually shed a tear or two for my cousin, Robert Langford (KIA 01/25/1968 along with Earl Mailloux and Phillip Garver) at this time each year as we honor those we gave all. But I want to send out a big hug to those brothers who are still with us. While I know you feel sadness, I pray you don't feel pain. You did your job. We are glad you're home. Let the pain go; replace it with the pride that you served, and the gratitude those of us have that treasure freedom for the sacrifices you've made. NO SLACK!

Steve Baldwin, I served with B Co. / E Co./ Tiger Force; 1st 327th Dec 69 - Nov 70. I'm trying to locate a Sniper from 1st 327th. who might have gone to the field with my Tiger Force squad sometime in 70. I can't remember his name, something like Stuber or Stubin. Any information would be greatly appreciated... ATR/ NS

Just received my copy of the June 2022 Issue of Vietnam Magazine.
Of all the men who served wearing the 101st Patch and the thousands who died wearing it you did them a great disservice and dishonor by printing the story of Jimi Hendrix.
I served with the Division from 1963 until 1966 and served with the First Brigade in Vietnam 1965/1966. If you want names of men who the AMERICAN people should read about and remember contact me I'll send you the names of the men we lost.
Never have I bragged about Hendrix serving in the same Division, that part of the unit history doesn't need to be publicized.

I was member of B Company 1/327 1st BDE 101st ABN from Jan 1966 thru the end of August 1966 when my enlistment was up, and I went back to the states.
Jack Wayne Lindsey was also a member of B Company and he was killed at My Phu on 3rd March, 1966. He came over on the ship in July 1965.. Another member of B Company was named Riggs who came from the 82nd ABN with me. He was killed at My Phu 3rd March, 1966.
Michael Hartness was a member of B Company and he came as a replacement in April 1966
There were three men killed on an ambush that was screwed up, Clark, White, and Harmon on or about Feb. 21 or 22, 1966. This was in the deserted village of My Phu near Tuy Hoa.
