My dear brother Daniel Fieux served with the 101st Airborne Division during the Vietnam War. I do not know what troop/brigade he was in. As a girl my Mom and I would send packages to him with cookies, rum balls and things needed.
What I am looking for is someone who might have known him during the Vietnam War. He had PTSD and was affected from Agent Orange. As many Vietnam veterans, he did not speak of the war. He died at age 40 and I found him dead from a heart attack. I just need to talk to someone who might have known him with the Screaming Eagles in 'Nam. I need closure. *sigh* Thank you.

Hi Everyone,
I served in both C Company and E Company from April 68 thur May 1969. I got my discharge and returned to the Army in 1972 where I retired in 1994. The Army was good to me and the memories have always been good for me of the people I have met through the years while serving. I would love to hear from anyone that remembers serving with me. I would love to get the roster of the people I served with, both in C Co, E Co Morters and while serving in the rear area, which was the worst job I had has a Company Armorer. I always enjoyed the men I served with, no matter what the job was.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Dog Tag to be returned to family of Vietnam KIA Jackie Dale Walker, 44 years after his death
Between April 20th & 24th, 1968, men from the 1st Battalion, 327th were involved in a firefight to secure two peaks located about 27 kilometers southwest of Hue in Vietnam. Seventeen Americans were killed.
One of those men, Jackie Dale Walker, had just recently celebrated his birthday on April 7th, 1968, he turned 19. He spent his birthday in Vietnam with his brothers of Bravo Company 1/327th.
Jackie and his family should have been spending a joyous time celebrating his 63rd birthday a few weeks ago. Instead, his family was left with only memories and thoughts of what could have been
Jackie Dale Walker, son of Harold and Christine Walker, was born in Okemah, OK, where he shared a humble live with two sisters and three brothers. He loved to fish, hunt, ride horses and had a great fondness for animals. After attending Bearden and Okemah schools, he was a member of the National Guard before he joined the Army in 1967.
This Saturday, April 21st 2 days before the 44th anniversary of Jackie's death, his mother Christine and family will be presented with a possession Jackie left behind in Vietnam, his dog tag.
Jackie's dog tag was found in 1998 by Wall Street trader Manny Santayana, who was touring the Ho Chi Minh trail and stumbled onto a Vietnamese man who made a living out of extracting bombs from the ground, grinding up the metal and selling it for profit. Sometimes he would stumble upon dog tags from U.S. soldiers, which he would collect and store in an ammo bag under his bed.
He had 105 of them, and he just harbored them away, thinking perhaps that they were worth something, Santayana recalled. Well, that day they were worth 100 bucks.
Over the next several years, Santayana was able to make some returns to dog tag owners, but he eventually became too busy to continue with the research. He then enlisted the help of NJ Senator James Beach and the NJ Dog Tag Committee was formed.
With the help of many organizations, the NJ Dog Tag Committee continues to research, locate and reunite the dog tags with the veterans and their families in the cases that the veteran was KIA. The organizations involved in Jackie's dog tag return include the Patriot Guard Riders and the VFW in Shawnee, among others.
The Patriot Guard Riders and friends will escort the Walker family from Sand Creek Cemetery, where Jackie is buried, to the VFW Post 1317, 811 East MacArthur Street, Shawnee, OK 74804 where VFW Officers and the Patriot Guard will present the Walker family with Jackie's dog tag.
For more information about the Dog Tag Project, including a list of dog tags yet to be returned, visit www.powmiaawareness.org
