usa and its bullshit rectoric and for the last 32 YEARS they have been left
behind to suffer thier fates discarded like whatever else this warmongering
nation touches. And lets not sit at home polishing our medals telling more LIES

this and get mad at me go ahead that does not change anything how about joining
me and traveling with a committed group who wants to REALLY help and bring some
releif to these victims of OUR MADE-UP WAR. I am a vet too and now live in
Canada and all these new war lies has encourage me to look at "my war" and its

Served with the 261st Trans Co (Med Trk)(Whistlers) at TC Hill in Long Binh from
Sep 66 to Sep 67. Was a Spec 5 at that time and ran convoys to Tay Ninh, Chu
Chi, An Loc and other points.
I have since met the then Commander of the 261st several years ago when I was
working for the Transportation School at Fort Eustis, Virginia as a DA Civilian.
Also met then Battalion Sgt Maj Ledbetter and Battalion CO LTC DeHaven at Fort
Eustis. GEN Dehaven is now deceased. Would like to hear from a fellow squad
member by the name of John Bull if he reads this.
Also served at China Beach in DaNang in 1970 - 71 which included a later
assignment back to Long Binh with the II Field Forces' 9th Trans Car Co (Car
Airborne). The 1st Sgt at that time was SFC Richard (Dick) Gumm. If anyone knows
him and where he is contact me. I've been contacted by Gary Arnett who was his
driver at that time and now resides in Texas. He provided me with an interesting
20 minute video taken in the company area and on some of our trips to Saigon
sometime in 71. I had forgotten all about it and was really surprized this 20
minute clip should show up in my life over 30 years later. Unfortunately there
is no sound. Shows myself playing guitar, Gary Arnett, and a few other 9th Trans
people. Awesome!!

AS THE MADNESS OF WAR TELLS ITS STORY
Goodness must overrule absolute evil
Though there’s nothing worse than war.
Sometimes we have no alternative option
Except to kill or be killed as before.
The best of plans can go amiss
With uncertainties till the first shots are fired.
As generals plot their path toward victory
It’s up to the wounded, the fallen and tired.
It’s not how strong or athletic you are
That decides who is blessed to return.
Those who survive are a product of luck,
And our prayers and support they’ve earned.
War seems to peel the veneer off society
Exposing our villain within.
A crazy obsession to rule over others
By death, destruction and sin.
The mayhem of conflict is a ongoing scourge
Robbing man from intended glory.
The hinge of history swings in all directions
As the madness of war tells its story.

established our base camp approx 4 miles north of pleiku. this was a big
hill not far from where the c-141's landed. in 1966 the 4th inf div
arrived and built there base camp on the opposite side ofthe air strip
from us. it was named camp enari. our base camp was called base camp of

as for as i know it was never given an official name. the 3rd bde 25th

I was the supply sergeant of Svc Btry 6/15 from Aug 68 to about April or

I have gone through the guest book and purged names from it for the 6th,
and would ask any and all members of the 6th of the 15th to make contact

we were so many years ago.

God will eradicate all which is wicked

May its supporters anguish in hell.

SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF WORLD WAR III
Our sons and daughters serve in harms way
To defend our way of life.
Some are students, some grandparents,
Many a husband or wife.
They face great odds without complaint
Gambling life and limb for little pay.
So far away from all they love
Fight our soldiers for whom we pray.
The plotters and planners of America’s doom
pledge to murder and maim all they can.
From early childhood they are taught
To kill is to become a man.
They exploit their young as weapons of choice
Teaching in heaven, virgins will await.
Destroying lives along with their own
To learn of their falsehoods too late.
The fearful cry we must submit.
And find a way to soothe them.
Where defenders worry if we stand down
The future for America is grim.
Now’s not the time to fight one another
Or kiss our enemy’s cheek.
All through history it remains the same
The strong enslave the weak.
May God continue to bless America
Refusing evil, the upper hand.
It’s up to us to stay resolute
Defending the liberty of Man.

SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF WORLD WAR III
Our sons and daughters serve in harms way
To defend our way of life.
Some are students, some grandparents,
Many a husband or wife.
They face great odds without complaint
Gambling life and limb for little pay.
So far away from all they love
Fight our soldiers for whom we pray.
The plotters and planners of America’s doom
pledge to murder and maim all they can.
From early childhood they are taught
To kill is to become a man.
They exploit their young as weapons of choice
Teaching in heaven, virgins will await.
Destroying lives along with their own
To learn of their falsehoods too late.
The fearful cry we must submit.
And find a way to soothe them.
Where defenders worry if we stand down
The future for America is grim.
Now’s not the time to fight one another
Or kiss our enemy’s cheek.
All through history it remains the same
The strong enslave the weak.
May God continue to bless America
Refusing evil, the upper hand.
It’s up to us to stay resolute
Defending the liberty of Man.

Korea - April '69 - Nov '70, Camp St. Barbara, 2 Bn 76 arty, does anyone
remember me? I'm trying to get my disability approved for Agent Orange
Exposure. I had top secret clearances and went to Camp Casey and Camp
Stanley plus many more bases. I'm trying to find someone who can
substantiate that I was at the places that the VA has declared Agent
Orange was used. You'd think being at the first line of defense at Camp
St. Barbara, it would be on the list. I have a photo showing the
difference in foliages on the DMZ. Naturally, the records I've been able
to retrieve so far have not shown any of the top secret clearance
missions or rosters of where my time was spent while in Korea.
Please if anyone can help me, it'd be so appreciated. A couple guys I do
remember and have been trying to find are: Gene Autry from North or
South Carolina, Joe Paul from Ohio, 1st Sgt Thomas E. Waters and Edward
A. Allen. These are some names that were in the 1970 Camp St. Barbara
year book: Ltc St. Julien R. Marshall Jr. was Battalion Commander; CSM
Sterling Wheeler, Battalion Command Sgt; 1Lt Norman Sonne, Liason
Officer; Robert Harris, CW2; 1Lt Donald Paschal, Property Book Officer;

WAR
As war is fought it takes charge,
And events spin out of control.
The madness of men can alter the soil
Which nourishes the roots of their soul.
Many things will forever change,
Far more then wished to be.
As the wrath of war starts to destroy,
Those things we fight to keep free.
War is the greatest plague of man,
Religion, state, and sanity.
Any scourge is more preferred,
Than the one which disables humanity.
When war breaks out, boundaries change
And all who die are a token,
Of the rage that must run it's course,
Before words of peace are spoken.

Anyone who thinks the V.A. pension law is discriminatory- contact me.
Under that law- the spouse can't work or the vets pension is reduced.
This is discriminatory against the spouse and labels the vet as a
welfare case.
We aren't welfare cases. Unless the wars we fought were welfare-to-work

Isn't is strange that an SSD cases spouse can work and there's not even

Brother redlegs,
Just a note from a DQS vet regarding our recent reunion. The NDQSA (National Dusters,
Quads and Searchlights Association) which includes Vulcan and Hawk missle batteries
(Air Defense Artillery)had quite a gathering at Charelston SC July 5-9. We had 115 vets
and family totaling more than 150 present including one 6/14 redleg who came to say thanks
and join the fun. We know you gun bunnies appreciated our fire power and we are grateful
to have shared some mudhole FB or LZ with you guys for some brief period. You guys were
in our thoughts and conversations for five days. Especially those of you who turned your
175's and fired over our new bunker all night and turned it into a pile of rags. I thought
that just happened at DakTo but it seems you guys were doing that all over South Vietnam.
You should have been more careful where you parked.
Buy the way, my mom gave me all my letters from Nam, in one I mention Jim Chambers from
Graham Washington. He might have been with C/7/15th at Tahn Cahn or DakTo April 71.
Contact me.
