Who among mortal men are you, good friend?
Since never before have I seen you in the fighting where men win glory,
yet now you have come striding far out in front of all others in your great heart . . .

To all.
Yes I served in Viet Nam with the 173rd airborne/ Echo Recon-grunt, know what I mean? Based out of L.Z. English. Did some humping in the ashau and Anlo valley, yea, can't spell either, just a drafted grunt And yes, we had c's from ww2 and pineapple's. LRRP's (rations) was in for us at the end of my tour, although the 75th rangers is who we stole them from, just like our beer..
I also did time with B-2/504, 82nd at Bragg--devils in baggy Pants and Basic there in 67.
Just for your info, I don't know this high tech shit, but I can read and I did bring 'BEER' So, what else is there to an intro, as I did read it and it doesn't say that I have to tell my life history just to make you feel good about yourself?
ok, as stated before, 49th company--31May 68
Blackflagg509, thanks for the welcome and 82 negitive responce, shit is still around,A? No one is perfect like you?

Welcome to the site Wildcat. Any member of the Herd is a brother of mine.
Thanks for coming back with the info. Nothing personal Bro'...we get posers on here all the time.....and I know you can understand that!
I won't say "Welcom Home", because I hate that phrase....it came thirty years to late.
But I will drink a beer to toast you, and say "Thanks for serving with me!"

Wildcat.....when was the 173rd in the A Shau Valley? I thought that was strictly a 101st AO.
