My son, PFC Benjamin Gandolf Young, failed to answer the final roll call on 27 May 07. Ben was with the 327th. I am restoring his 58 Chevy Panel truck in his honor and all others who have given the ultimate sacrifice for our Country. I have started a website, www.bens58.com to explain what I am doing. I tried to open the contact page on this site but it doesn't give me any contact info. Can any one help to put me in touch with the folks running this site? I would like permission to link this site with mine. Thanks

I was at Phu Loc on 6-10-70 I was with the 326 Eng. C Co. They sent me out to supervise the clearing of the mine field at Phu Loc, I had a profile and was not able to work so I just watched them work, the workers were snipers that went out at night and just worked a couple of hours a day. I was at Tomahawk when we first got in country it was the first firebase we were sent to. We stayed with the guy in radar it was ground surveillance, we were there about a month or so and we got to know the radar guys. the one that was killed by the canister was form radar, that night I was sleeping in a huch by myself when I was woke up by the first round the hit Pho Luc I didn't know what it was I though it was the Duster 40mm that would fire at night, we would watch from Tomahawk a few month back, the second one I know what it was, there was someone screaming form the hoch next to me. I was sleeping on the floor of the hoch on a matters that i poled oven me and put on my boots and ran outside to see what was going on. They were pulling out someone form the hoch the mortar had blown is foot off and they were carrying in out and up to the command bunker, I started back into my hoch when one of the guys said where are you going, I said I'm going to get my stuff,he said forget it come on lets get out of here, I turned and ran behind him and started up the stairs about ten yards form my hoch when another incomming round landed on it, I stated running faster. When I got to the top of the stairs I looked back and the hoch was almost gone and on fire I had a 79 and a 45, the founds from the 79 were going off. I got to the command bunker and a Major was stand there and asked me where my weapon was and I pointed at the remains of the hoch, he said oh!, All I had was a helmet and underwear and boots. One of the incoming rounds hit a ammo bunker and set off some CS gas, my gas mask was in the hoch too. The next day the guys for radar came down to Pho Luc and told me the Stemmens got hit in the head with a canister. My LT came to pick me up at the same time. I returned to my company with my 79 and 45 in my helmet in pieces , that's all I could find. I still think about what if I would went for my things, wish I could remember the guys name that said lets get out of here! The radar guys were Henry Hilton, Stewart and Johnson I think, of cores god bless Stemmons. There's a lot more

Dear Association and Members,
25 years ago while serving as an E-4 with B co. 2/502 "strike force" I was informed by my SGT to pack my bags for a trip to Dover Delaware to
participate in a memorial service for the troops of the 327 Battalion.
As I sat here last night with a drink in hand, searching for photos and
news articles over the internet of that event in my life, I found your website.
although I do not recall hearing of your association during my time at Ft.
Campbell,(1983 thu 1986) I just wanted to drop a note and thank you for your
time and the services to our troops who so bravely defend the life for
which we should all be so greatful.
I enjoyed the photos on your site dedicated to the 327 as much as I do the list of
names for the many fallen soldiers in 1985 of which I knew prior to their departure to the Sinia.
May God bless their souls, and bring your orginization to prospire in the years to come.
"AIR ASSAULT"
Thank you ever so much,
Joe Martin
