Default I give up

After numerous attempts to make a post relating to a KIA from Vietnam, I give up. Keep getting error messages...
But does anyone remember SPC Rice, An Khe, Vietnam 1965?
Was with special forces but assigned duty with 1st Cav Airmobile.

Default Hi

This is Fred Deakins from Charlie Company 15th Med. I have been to the last three 15th Med reunions. I was at Myrtle beach only for one day and I missed a lot of people. I checked out your blogsite and really liked what you did for Tiny Mellon. What a great guy he was. I wish someone had recorded his adventures with Ed the Chicken. Ed kind of moved in and took over Tiny's bait shop. About the guy you are looking for, any more information like his first name or more specificly what unit he was in? There are a lot of guys here with a lot of knowlege.

Small world isn't it... You'd have to email me a picture of you so I can place you. Bobby and I have been to the last two reunions, Biloxi and Myrtle Beach. I'm usually huddled in the corner with some of the guys, working on their scrapbook pages. I was honored this year by the Women's Group at the urging of Jim Calibro and was given the honor as this years "15th med bn Angel" mainly for my scrapbook work.
I might even have a picture of you if you were at the banquet in Biloxi..
Now I do feel at home cause I know somebody here

I remember you and Bobby. He and I talked about my sister who lives in Crossville. I don't think you know her. She is the church secretary at First Baptist Church. I live in the Tri Cites in Limestone near Davy Crockett Birthplace State Park.
