Gaetan

Comments: On October 5th 1951 my father was involved in a battle near Chobakkol. He was a switchboard operator. He won the bronze star for not leaving his post while under intense fire. He was with H.Q. company second battalion 7th calvery. He passed away when I was 3 and I would love to know more about him. He never told mom much about his war expierance , exept that he was amazed at how intense the emotion of fear could be. We have a few pictures of him and some guys in the field I think dad may have been considered the old man, at the age of 27.

Comments: I wish I new more about my grand father, as I know I have his blood running through my vines. He made his way through the Japanese islands to lead the first troops into Japan after the bombs had been dropped. He was a Calvary man all the way and could ride and jump a horse like no one else. In fact, he was asked to ride Emperor Herohito's white stallion while station in Japan. When the call came for Korea, he was right there ready to serve. He never spoke much about the war times, but he lost most of his friends in the Korean war and walk out with several medals including the silver star and a bronze star. He retired a Major and was one mean SOB with a rough Irish side that only a true NY born Irish could have. I only knew him as a child, so any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.

Hello everyone

Comments: Hello to all of u and all those brave soldiers our country has. I am a student in Antilles High School at Ft. Buchanan, Puerto Rico,and I am doing a project about a soldier who went to the Vietnam War. I have to know how the soldier was drafted into war, how he got to the battle field, what he did(or she), if you killed any soldier up close to save your life, about POW( prisioners of war) and how did that person die. I am mostly interested in the battle of Ia Drang, the one shown in We Were Soldiers, because it shows a more real view of what a cold war is and I am very familiar with it. If any of you are interested in helping me with this project, please write to me to the email shown above. I will really appreciate it and so will my classmates. If you aren't interested, i will not take it against you because I know this is a very sad topic and many have lost loved ones there. Again, my email is dreamybabypr@yahoo.com so if any are interested I will love to know from any of you. Thank you so much for your time;I Josephine M. Centeno Catalá, Puerto Rico
