Thanks for the info on my old unit! Spent January - March 1971 with Echo Recon 1/5 Cav. Home was FB Mace around Xuan Loc and we were operating off FB Apache. Didn't realize the Cav stayed on for so long. When 1st brigade stood down, I got sent to the 101st, 1/501st Echo Recon at the tail end of Lam Son 719. Phu Bai was our rear area the rest of my tour.

Sir's!

By checking "rosters", "locator-pages" and guestbooks, one never knows what name/s you may recognize, of a Brother you have not spoken with since "DEROS", but would like to re-establish contact with again. With primarily this in mind, but also other things, I wish to..... "yup!", you guessed correctly.... share a few links with you both. The links are at the very bottom of this post.

urbsdad6, Sir! Just also want to say that, I am Glad that you are Home!

T G C! ( = Take Good Care! )

Sincerely
A.B
