I received a note from a 9th grade student from Marked Tree, Arkansas. The letter was well written and they seemed to be well informed about the Vietnam. I am looking forward to meeting Chandler when we visit Marked Tree this September. This will be my first reunion and I am looking forward to meeting a lot of old friends |

Got a very uplifting letter from a tenth grader named Joseph Wilson. I hope to see this young man at the wall when we get there I'm glad I took the time to write him back. He was very grateful and well informed on the war history. Hope to see some of my buddies this fall in Memphis. Don Demchek, Ray Long, John Licavoli,Tom Rutten and others C/2/5 66-67 |

I just got the most wonderful letter from a high school senior in Marked Tree, Arkansas. For her age, she is so knowledgeable about what we went through and how we were treated upon return. I look forward to meeting her at the re-union. Thank you Kim. |

I was Platoon Leader for 2d Platoon during early 1969. I remember well the CA we made on March 29 to reinforce Alpha Company. After Mike's Platoon was detached to Alpha Company, my Platoon had the mission of pushing into a section of the woodline and recovering what we believed to be several of Alpha Company's wounded. Those who were there know the fire coming from the woodline was intense. Before we could reach the woodline, myself, my RTO and an M-79 gunner were hit with grenades and RPD machine gun fire. All 3 of us were hit. Other members of my Platoon were able to reach us and move us to a safe position. Eventually we were moved to the Med-evac area. I recall several Med-evac helicopters landing and departing. My next vivid memory was waking up at the 15th Surgical Hospital in Tay Ninh. I am proud to have been a part of Tall Comanche, and to those soldiers who risked their lives to pull me, my RTO and M-79 gunner to safety I say...Thank you and GOD Bless you. |

I was with the C 2/5 from March thru Sept 69 in the field. 2nd squad. Then brigade intelligence from when we moved to phuc vinh then to Quan Loi. One of the guys wounded in the Dec 18-22 fighting was John Steinwert from Illinois. He was shot 4 or 5 times, and I saw him at a hospital in St. Louis and then later at home. He was doing OK. Larry Andrews was another one shot. I don't know if it was the same action. He is doing well in Illinois now. I was at Lang Vei, Khe Sanh, An Binh, French Fortress, LZ Tom, Stud, Jane, Nancy, and Hardcore. I remember Sgt. Peoples well. I was only about 20ft away from Harvey Gilliam was killed, Sgt. Peoples and I were laying as flat as we could so we wouldn't get hit with the rockets the NVA were firing. I know very few people in the 2nd platoon except who was in my squad. My nickname back then was little ski as our platoon leader was a ski(BIG SKI). |

RE: CALVIN KYRLE GRAESER Calvin Graeser was killed March 11, 1967 during the Battle of Phu Ninh-- I am his niece and my son would like to write a paper about Calvin (we called him Butch). We are looking for someone who would have served with him in Viet Nam. Thank you for this website. I read all about Phu Ninh and appreciated having some details, his letters were not very informative about his tour. He is greatly missed by his family to this day. |
