I know there are many vets here.
It would be interesting to know where and when you served.
I was in the Army, A Co., 27th Eng Bn (cbt), 45th Group, 18th Engineer Brigade. Dec 2. 1969 - Feb 2, 1971. Republic of South Vietnam.
Thanks to all for your service.

USN Helo Combat Support Squadrons. 1980-86. Then 90-92. Granada, Panama, Beirut Lebanon and Desert Shield/Desert Storm. Beirut was the worst. 258 dead Marines. A few were close friends. We were the first helos in there after the the truck bomb went off.
P.S. Smackey, I think that our whirley gassed up on the Peleliu one time during DS. (Somebody wasn't watching the gas gauge). Actually we got sent out on another recon on the way back in and you guys were the closest fuel.
