After 40 years, Moses DeBuhr finally gave up the location of Larry Wallace who we some how failed to include on our roster. I have had a couple of email contacts with Larry and he asked me to post hi email. However, because anyone has access to this site, I will email it to everyone for security sake.
In any case welcome Home Larry, glad to have you back and we hope to see you in Gatlinburg in September.

I am asking everyone to check your duffle bags and foot lockers for copies of orders. I need them to try and locate other company members. I know some of you guys have them tucked away.

Good Night my Brothers,
Rat

I took Applebee's up on their steak dinner today. It made up for the one I didn't get at Ft Lewis because our plane was so late. The place was overflowing with Vets old and new as well as several active duty soldiers. It became a "Welcome Home" party for some. I hope you all had as good a day as I had. Fred

I started ouit going down my phone list calling you great honorable men. Then I realized that I had to use the blog to thank each and every one of you for your dedicated service.
When you came home, you did not receive the heros welcome that you deserve. You were looked down upon and disrespected.
If you ever chance to look at statistics, you will see that the Viet Nam Vet has done quite well compared to his civilian counterpart. Never, NEVER think of your selves as less. You are a unique "Band of Brothers". You fought the good fight.
As the days and years go by, we find more Company members. In the last two days we have found John Waterson and Larry Wallace, both of the 2nd Platoon. Just so every one knows, John Waterson is my hero. He is the epitome of what you as a whole were and are. Too all of the troops who served in other locations of the world we thank you for your service and know tghat if the balloon went up you would have given your all.
HAPPY VETERANS DAY.
For those who did not come back, we think of you often for you gave the ultimate.

"Brothers Forever,
Rat

P.S. Do not forget, free meals at Golden Corral and Applebees

HOPE ALL YOU OLD GTUNTS ARE HAVEING AN HAPPY VETRANS DAY!!!

JUST WANTED ALL MY BROTHERS/HEROS TO KNOW I AM THINKING OF ALL OF YOU GUY'S TODAY, AND HOPE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU ARE WELL AND HAVEING A WONDERFUL DAY!
