Just discovered this Web Site, and congrats to Dale and the Team for rebooting it the best they Could.
I was in C Company , 1/327th from June 66 to June 67, then went on to the 82nd at Ft Bragg. I was in Second Platoon, humped ammo for Kobs and Eastler on the M-60’s, then an M-79, then 6 weeks on Point,. I then became the RTO for Lt Hill of 2nd Platoon, CAPT Northquest the CO and then joined the Recon Squad (Cobras) carrying the Radio for Sgt Phillips before he went to SOG, I became the Squad Leader in April 67 and DEROSed last Day of May 67. May was a terrible month for C Company as we lost 20 guys KIA including my best Friend.

Would you please enter Michael Hartness as a member of B Company 1/327 Infantry 1st Brigade 101st ABN. For the love of God he at least deserves this. He came to B Company about the end of April or first part of May 1966 and came home in 1967. He was my assistant gunner on the M-60 machine gun. He was brave as all hell. His name was lost on the old site. He died of a brain tumor not long ago and his family didn't even arrange for a military funeral for him or any military honors which he deserved. I can personally attest to his bravery in action. The war deeply affected him as it did most of us who there during period. Please add his name to the members of B Company. I want him remembered, NOT FORGOTTEN! I have submitted his name before as well as others. Demboski who is listed was a member of A Company, not B Company and was killed at My Ohu March 4th, 1966.

I was in E Company 327th Infantry at Ft. Campbell during the years 1958-1959 and wondered if anybody on this site was stationed their during this period.My Platoon Sergeant was Sergeant Willis,, who jumped in on D Day. He died in 1959 when we were on maneuvers and was sleeping in the commo tent and the night guard, who was cold, it was January or February . The gas stove in the commo tent was barely burning and he poured gas from a gas can on it which exploded on Sergeant Williams and burned him alive as he was sleeping. We were all in our pup tents and woke up to see this and too late to save him.
Sergeant Williams was 15 when he joined in W2 and 18:when he jumped in on D Day. What a waste.
Thanks
Joe Cotter

All,
Thank you Yankee Jim for your most kind words, I cannot tell you how much I appreciate them. And believe me, there have been times I felt like I was one of only a few even accessing the web site. But now knowing this is making a difference, gives me the encouragement to drive-on.
I also need to clarify a few things. First of all, I could not possibly help re-build the web site without a lot of assistance from our web site provider, OTR’s Ian. He has financed the instruction, guidance, patience and technical support provided by Birgit and Cindy from his technical staff. They all are always just a call or e-mail away, standing by for whatever is needed. Believe me, without them we’d still be without the site.
Please remember, the web site still has a long way to go. But with your support, commo and encouragement, we’ll “git ‘r dun”. Thank you and God Bless.
AIRBORNE!

327 Brothers, Sisters and Family,
First launched August 2000 this website has gone through and grown through many changes. Since the beginning Hannibal has played a big roll in this adventure. The only reason we have what you see today is because of his tireless, hard work. After the "Big Crash" he alone was able to salvage the pictures, stories, guest book entries and the history of the 327th infantry of yesterday and today. He is Airborne all the Way!
If you haven’t visited the site recently there are many updates to see and if you find anything that is missing or needs to be corrected let Hannibal know hannibal@327infantry.org. Remember to sign the Guest Book when you visit, it’s still the best way to find a brother you served with: 327infantry.org
Honor & Country!

Hello,
I just found this website, and I feel like this query is long overdue; my father, William (Bill) L. Broyles, served in the A Shau Valley as an executive officer to Charles Beckwith. This was from late '67 or early '68 until the end of June '68. My mother died that June under very tragic circumstances and my father had to be helicoptered out of the jungle. I guess I'm writing to inquire whether anyone here recalls serving with him. He died in 2007. Appreciate anything that anyone might remember. Thanks! Greg
