I would like to get in touch with Dewright who posted in Dec. 2021 about an incident involving the artillery accident. I was with D Co. 1st /327th on a hill a few clicks away, heard the explosions and saw smoke. Then we heard it over the radio. I still think of it every year. My email is gfcsr1121@gmail.com.

In 1966 for about 5 months, I served with B-1-327th Infantry, 1st Brigade, 101st Airborne Division, South Vietnam. I think the base camp may have been Tuy Hua. I was 22 years of age. I went through airborne training in July - August 1964, Fort Benning, Georgia. I was 19. My first duty station was with the signal company, 10th Special Forces, Flint Kaserne, Badt Toltz, Germany. The tour of duty was 3 years.

Briefly, I volunteered for duty with the 101st and I served with D/2/327 from May 1968 to May 1969 as 2nd Platoon Leader and then XO. Later, after finishing flight school and the Cobra AH-1G gunship transition, I again served with the 101st – this time with A Troop, 2/327 Cav in ’71-‘72.
Brothers – we are so very fortunate that Dale Hansen, a truly Great American, has again taken on the daunting challenge of developing our 327 Infantry Vets website. The original website was an amazing repository of unit histories, personal anecdotes and observations – and really a superb piece of American history as told by those of us who were actually there and participating in the making of it. A remarkable national treasure for sure!
Many thanks to Dale and all of his many supporters for this remarkable piece of our shared history!

Good to see the website Up and running again. Too bad it was lost in the crash. I remember when it was first discussed way back even before Y2K. Hannibal and David J took on the task of doing the initial build up and and maintenance of the site. That's not and easy task. My hat is off to them for their hard work on the rebuild.
