Hope to someday attend my first reunion and relive some of the great comradship I found in Vietnam. Wishing all Red Warriors and their support groups a fantastic weekend to remember.

Dear Cordine McMurray
You don’t know me but since the late 1960s I’ve known about you. I purchased a POW/MIA bracelet at that time and for many, many years I wore that silver bracelet and thought about you. I wondered how you were doing; what had happened to you; if you were married or had children etc. My questions were endless.
I wore your bracelet for years although I’m not sure when I removed it and placed it carefully in my jewelry box. Although it obviously was not expensive, to me it was priceless. For a while my college age daughter wore the bracelet as well.
I am amazed at the world of technology today. Recently, while talking with a dear friend and reminiscing about the Vietnam War we talked about the bracelet. My friend told me I could probably find out some information about you from the internet. Boy was he right. Within a few minutes I found the bracelet site and from there was able to find you and your story.
What can I possibly say that you probably haven’t heard before? Please know that I’m glad my prayers were answered and that you are home. I am sorry for all you have endured and hope that the recent years have brought a sense of peace and good health to you and your family. I would love to hear from you but if not that it okay too. If you would like to have the bracelet please let me know where I can mail it.

With all my best wishes

I would like to hear from anyone who served with my brother Joe in Nam. He served in Company E, 1st Batallion, 12th Infantry, 4th Division. He died southwest of Plei Mrong in the Province of Kontum on August 6, 1969. Thank you.

James, I am trying to make contact with you on behalf of 1st Carl Hamilton, 3rd Platoon Leader, B Company, 1/12th, in Cambodia.

Please send me an email.

Charles Penley

I was not assigned to your unit but my friend was. He does not have a computer. He was assigned to: B Co., 1st Bn 12th Inf, 4th Inf Div from Aug 1969 - Aug 1970.

He has been asked by the Veteran's Administration to see a copy of his Combat Infantry Badge Award.

If you have such a copy of the orders or award, please contact me at cepenley@chartertn.net

Sincerely,

Charles Penley

The Cambodia 1970 Rendezvous in Reno, NV this past June 15-19 at the Circus Circus Hotel %26 Casino was a huge success. We had some 72 attendees with five(5) attending from the 1-12th--1Lt. Glen "Rusty" Armstrong, D Co. Cmdr. and wife Ann, Benjamin Hauck (RTO/1/A Co.), Gerald Pearson (3/3/A Co.)and wife Linda, Londell "Duke" Thompson (2/A Co.) and wife Jean, James Tobise (1/A Co.) and wife. Several other Red Warriors had to cancel at the last moment. Lt. Armstrong, one of our guest speakers at Banquet Night progam gave an excellent talk. He was presented with a 101st Airborne traditional screaming eagle on an oak base with engraved plate. Eagles were presented to officers, platoon sergeants and medics attending. All attendees who attended and participated in the Cambodia Operation--Binh Tay I--received a special "Cambodian Incursion" Certificate of Recognition with their unit crest, rank and name, unit. The certificate, as well as photos and an AAR (After Action Report) of the reunion can be viewed at: www.currahee.org. The AAR will be posted shortly. Attendees from each of the units attending have expressed the desire to come together again in a year or so to renew the friendship and sharing that took place this reunion. The book--Twelve Days In May--is a huge success per attendees and others who have purchased their copy. If you want a copy, go to: www.cambodiaincursion.com. If you want an autographed copy: www.currahee.org.

Wondering if there is anyone here that served with Thomas Rowland in 68-69. Also have a second question. Does anyone know anything about a guy named Joe Smith who was in Charlie Company and was killed by a Tiger sometime in 68 or 69?

During the week of 27 May through 5 Jun 1969, the Red Warriors lost a battalion commander, 4 medics and many a good infantryman as KIA. I believe there are at least 28 men who paid the ultimate price, including LTC Robert Carter our commander. Lest we ever forget.

I'm looking for insights, stories about my dad, CSM (Ret) Bill Perry, he passed 14 Apr 2009 at the Dallas,TX VA Hospital at 75. If there is anyone out there who recalls "Top" Perry, please write back. I have met those he served with in the 1st ID (B-2/18th INF) in 66/67, they all called him "Top"; unfortunately I met them after dad passed. I've seen their emails pay tribute and even read a chapter in the book "Laughs from Nam" written by LTC (Ret) Bob Leary (had a platoon was an XO in B-2/18th) about dad during Operation Junction City.

I set up a college ROTC memorial scholarship in his dad's name just after he passed. It would be a nice tribute to pass along any insights to these future soldiers and leaders about dad from those who knew him in Vietnam. Might not be surprising to any of you, but dad never spoke about Vietnam, not at any length. I did know he eventually was the Post SGM at An Khe from Mar 70 to Jun 70 working under Brigadier General Jack McFarlane (4th ID Asst Div Cdr). Thank you!

Bill Perry

Can anyone give me information about what happened to these men 20 August 1968 in Darlac province?
They were all in B company 1/12.
David Botts
Louis Gau
Michael Goins
Albert Smith
Sgt Botts had been in country for 3 months, the other three privates all about one month.
Thanks,
A family friend.

Troopers, I have asked Roger Hill to post a message that my latest book--Twelve Days In May--is now available. The pages of this book present the factual story of the 4th Infantry Division Cambodian Incursion in May 1970—not only the role of my battalion, the 3-506th, but the story behind each of the five other 4th Infantry battalions and their support units--aviation, artillery, medical, engineers, and logistics--who participated in the campaign. The men who fought the battles and faced the enemy gallantly deserve more than being recorded as only numbers and statistics on faded archives pages, or having their names etched for eternity on the Vietnam Wall. Behind these statistics are countless untold stories that bring out the devastation of war in vivid detail and told by those who were there, including the "Red Warriors". Unlike other books written about the 4th ID's involvement, read what really happened in Binh Tay I. I plan to share my 3-years of research for this book that involves the 1-12th Inf. with Roger Hill and your association. You can order the book on the internet or directly from me at: www.currahee.org. I think you will like the book. I will be honored to autograph a copy for you, if ordered from www.currahee.org. BTW, we have organized a special reunion in Reno, NV, June 15-19 at the Circus Circus Hotel %26 Casino to honor all of you who participated in that northern thrust into Cambodia. Come join us and be honored. Check out the details on www.currahee.org to see who all have already signed up. Contact me if you have questions.

Currahee!

Remembering a valiant red warrior who left us on 4/20/'69 and will never be forgotten. In a short squad he volunteered to carry the radio and the M-79 with its full load of rounds in a vest plus bandoliers. I so wanted to see you go home to the "farm" in Albion that you always talked about. I still wear your KIA bracelet daily along with ones for Kilbane, Grubbs and Francis and think of you when I see a pile of firewood or a deer in the headlights. A special thank you to Gene Murphy who was WIA on that fateful day as you watched my back and saved my life on numerous occasions. I hope life is treating you and all our fellow brothers with dignity and compassion.
In Peace,
Maddog 3/3 68-'69

I am trying to locate soldiers who knew my brother, Jerry Glenn Ervin, who died of shrapnel wounds received 3/8/69 near Kontum Province. He served in Bravo Company, 42 ARTY, 4 INF DIV.
Please e-mail me if you knew him and/or can share information concerning his service in Vietnam.
Thanks.

I'm looking for a lewis Paul Edwardsborn in or around 1931. He was stationed in Germany with out Army in or around 1961. I think he might have been statioined out of Ft. Carson, Colorado Springs. I have an 'RA" number but it hasn't been very helpful in my search.

I am trying to locate anyone who knew my brother James Wallace Dietz. I would like to know more about his time and duties in Nam. If anyone knew him please contact me. Thanks to all military personel for what they did and still do for us. I am not sure this is correct group he was with as info on Co E is not easy to find.

He was in 1/12 Alpha Company 1967-1968 Russell Geldersma

I've been trying to find a few guys from Alpha 68-69. I was a rifle man at the beginning of my tour and on mortars at the end.

Jimmy Williston was hit by a car and killed in 1973. His wife died a few years ago and his only son, Jim, last year. Jimmy was a Native American from Oklahoma. A big guy. He's in some of my pictures that are posted. We were on the machine gun together for awhile. His nephew is working on a family history and is hoping to speak with guys who knew Jimmy in Nam. If you remember Jimmy, could you get in touch with me?

Thanks.
Mike (Rat) Willenbecher

welcome home to all!!!!!!!!!"

Arrived in Vietnam 01 Aug. 1968. Sargent for Charlie Company 1/12 from August 1968 through July of 1969. Some of the guys I served with were the late Ronald Altepeter (we called him Heavy), Lt. Mike Ranger, Frank Russo, and a guy we called Crazy Crow. Served under the late Top Sargent Jessie Revels. Dates of some of the battles that come to mind were August 18, 1968, and May 31, 1969,and many more in between.

43 years ago today, Louis Willet and James Kramer made the ultimate sacrifce. Let us not forget them and all of our men and women who have died for our country.

To begin, thank you all for your service. I am on active duty and sincerely appreciate the legacy you all have made for the rest of us to follow, it is an honor. I was hoping to find someone who knew my Uncle, Capt Darrel Skubinna who served with the unit in 1969. One of the pictures on Flickr has CO Sterling McColgin taking over for him....Darrel died before I was born and unfortunately I never got a chance to meet him. I would be very interested in hearing from anyone who knew him personally or professionally; my dad, his brother, would be enjoy very much hearing about his service.
