I am a Mco trooper looking for an old friend. Don't remember his name only the good times. I met him while guarding an airbase in Jan 69. He was in K troop, a young mexican from calif. I heard during a firefight his sixty blew up and burned his hands. He was sent to Japan. He was about 5'7" to 5'9". If this sounds familiar and think you can help please send me an email...ALLONS

I forgot my Email address, but as soon as I find out I'll get it to you. We just got hooked up to the internet a couple days ago! I enjoyed your pictures, and I can't wait to tell my parents about your web site, it's great! I enjoyed visiting with you at the reunion in Washington DC. Thank you for creating this web site. It means a great deal to many.

Editor's Note: Tina, it was great to meet you in DC. Glad you liked the pictures. Be sure to send me your e-mail address so that I can send you the business card image that you wanted. Best wishes, Bob Hersey

God Bless you. I lived through these times and lost friends in Viet Nam. Those returning warriors of Freedom have been treated very badly by our fellow citizens and government. I pray that before it is too late those men and women that paid the ultimate price and those who served with them will receive the honor they deserve. I'm sending this web site url to all my friends and family.

Hi Bob, Been a while since we've talked. I wanted to let you know that my friend Sgt Kenny Orton ( last story in my book) passed on the 17th of July. Services will be held on the 5th of Aug. in Santa Rosa,Ca. Col. Davis is sending 10 Blackhorse troopers to help with the services. Got a call from the Command Sgt. Major last night and he informed me that the Regiment and the troopers of the Blackhorse will never forget it's own. I'll be on hand in Santa Rosa to tell our young troopers that we ,the Vietnam Vets will not forget them either. ALLONS, Jack

It's me again Bobby. Your page gets more professional and informative every year. You sure make me proud to have been in K Troop(66-67). Last year I missed meeting you some way, so maybe I'll be awake enough this year. I see you and your wife are registered as am I. So see you in DC to celebrate the birth of the best unit in the Army!

ALLONS!

This site I found by stumbling thru the internet. I'm very impressed with the photos. Realizing the span of time that has passed and the clarity is highly visible. This site gives a personal account of the Vietnam experience. I thank you for the opportunity to view this start to finish.
