Speaking on the CMOH, especially for 1st Cav Vets. My first upclose experience of a CMOH recipient was 1969 during AIT at Ft. Polk, La. Delta 4-5. We were in a class "A" inspection when the Commander approached wearing this prestigious medal. Acually I just didn't know the facts as a young private. His name was Captain James Sprayberry 1ST
Cav Division. He served in Viet Nam in 1968. Tried to contact Him once, but no reponse.
He now resides in La Grange, Ga. I really repected Him as My Commander, and to actually
sit in the same messhall with such a hero. Not to mention to serve Him coffee if You had KP, and You were DRO. (dining room orderly) never forgot that acronym. I do love the CMOH site thanks for this info.
