Son, you are in our thoughts and prayers. We are very proud of you. It's strange to be seeing so much of what's happening on the news live. Camy has made patches for her jacket that say 101st Airborne along with your infantry, she wears this to school everyday. Jessica was over and she leaves for the Air Force training tomorrow. Stay safe and take care. We Love You, Mom & Dad and Cameron

I am terribly sad to hear of the deaths of some of
your Airborne troops in Kuwait. My father and two
brothers were Royal Engineers in England - so I
really understand the pain you feel at the loss of
your fellow soldiers. Keep going, hang tough and
come back to America safely - and soon!

I would like to thank all those responsible for this fine tribute to all our fallen comrades of the Screaming Eagles that served in Vietnam.

Although I wasn't a member of the 101st, 327th, I was stationed at Fort Campbell back in 1957-59 duty with the 601st Aerial Supply Company before leaving for new assignment to the 549th Aerial Supply Company in Japan from 1960-64, then on to the 5th Special Forces Group S-4 in Nha Trang South Vietnam as the operations NCOIC from 1964-65, and again in 67-68.

I lost a very close friend who was more like a big brother to me during my early military career. His name was Daryle Wayne Batt who served with A Company 1-327th in Thua Thien in 1969, and was killed in action. Daryle Batt left behind his wife and four children who live in Washington State.

I left a remembrance on the Virtual Wall web page and have received a email from one of his buddies who survived the fire fight, telling me that Daryle's aggressive action when trying to brake through the Ambush saved two of his buddies lives. Well knowing Daryle like I did, he would do something like that to protect his men. For no-one could do anything more bravely and unselfishly for his men then to sacrifice his life for them, that is the real meaning of leadership!!!

God Bless men like Daryle Wayne Batt, and all those fine young men who paid the supreme sacrifice for their
Country and their fellow man, and God Bless all the present men serving with the Screaming Eagles in the defense of our Country!

This message is to whom ever may have served or knew my older brother SSG Ray Adam Archuletta KIA 7 Sept 1967. We were not given much detail as to how Ray's last few days with the 101st Airborne brothers. My father was extremly proud of his eldest son as he was the other three. My mother was never the same after his death. Iam sure that if Ray was was able to put Sadam's Insane name on a round he would be happy to do so. All of our family are as proud of Ray and his special brothers he lived with his last few days as my father. If there is any one that would be willing to corrispond with me about Ray I would be happy to do so. I noticed that Dale Hansen submitted his name to the Virtual Wall for posting. Thanks again in advance.

I am a college student in a Vietnam course. My father was in Vietnam from 6/66 - 7/67. He was B co. 1st Bn 327inf, 1st bat, 101st Airborne. It is very hard for me to talk to him about what happened over there. He was going in for another tour but, thankfully, his injuries during the first year did not let that happen. If anyone can give me a brief history on my fathers division, I would really appreciate it. It is hard to find this information. Thank you.

I'm doing research on an incident evolving, C Company, 1st Battalion, 327 Inf, 101st Airborne. Pfc. Alan Bonney was one of the Kia's. The incident was on 5/25/67. It was an action in Quang Ngai province around the area of Duc Pho. A platoon of C Company fought to the top of a nameless hill and was ambushed. Most were killed and those that were alive after, the NVA assassinated. There was a Scout Dog with them by the name of Thunder. He was killed also. When the Kia's were airlifted out off the mountain, they airlifted the Dog out also, to the surprise of the people in the rear receiving the bodies. The commander thought it fitting, as Thunder had a piece of an NVA in his mouth when he was killed. I am trying to identify the dog handler. If you remember this action please contact me.

101ST AIRBORNE DIVISION (AIR ASSAULT) RECEIVES DEPLOYMENT ORDERS
FORT CAMPBELL, Ky., February 6, 2003. - The 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) and associated units stationed at Fort Campbell, Kentucky,
have received orders to deploy to the U.S. Central Command area of operations (AOR) to support possible future operations in the global war on terrorism. The specifics of any such operations are not known at this
time. As the world's premiere air assault division, the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) and its 270 helicopters will provide Central Command substantial operational flexibility and combat power, as well as
the ability to conduct long-range helicopter attacks and air assault operations should those capabilities be required to successfully prosecute the global war on terrorism. The 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) provided some of the first combat units in Afghanistan - which included Task Force Rakkasan and
Apache Attack Helicopters - and these units participated in Operation Anaconda and the other major operations conducted in the spring and summer of 2002.
Units that have received deployment orders include elements of the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), the 101st Corps Support Group, and the 86th Combat Support Hospital. Fort Campbell leaders cannot at this time discuss specific numbers of soldiers deploying or deployment destinations; nor can they speculate on
future employment of forces.

The lead story on my Yahoo home page when I logged on this evening was that the 101st Airborne Division has received orders to deploy overseas. Of course, the information about which units have been activated were not yet available. Whatever your feelings about the growing likelihood of a war with Iraq, I know all of you join in Godspeed to the soldiers of the 101st. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Screaming Eagles.
