Comments: I am a "guardian" with the Central Missouri Honor Flight. I will be escorting a Vietnam Veteran who served in the 11th Cav, F Trp, 2nd Sqnd to Washington D.C. to see his memorials.
This veteran received a Silver Star during a battle on 04/17/71 in Binh Duong Province, South Vietnam. Three of his comrades were KIA. I am hoping to reconnect him with fellow soldiers that he would have served with. His name is Mervin Seidel from Missouri. Thank you.

Comments: My grandpa is Thomas J Williamson (also known as TJ, Tom, Ralph or Willie), and he passed away on July 31, 2016. I am hoping to find people who knew him that could share stories with me and that I could pass on to family members. He talked about Vietnam and Korea a lot, but never thought to ask him the million questions I had as I thought I could always do it the next time I saw him. If anyone has any stories or just knew him in general, please email me! Thank you in advance.

Comments: Sorry first entry did have the information.
Good afternoon, I am a daughter to Orlan Erickson he was in Vietnam during 69-71. He passed away in 1999 and I am creating a memorial shadow box of his medals earned and researching more information on the 11th armored Cavalry. I am probably digging in a pile of needles but if there is anyone who knew of him or stood by him during Vietnam I would love to be able to connect with some that were over there with him. Thank you so much for your time and have a blessed day he was in HHT Regiment 1/70 – 12/70.

Comments: Has anyone returned to the Blackhorse base camp in RVN. I am wanting to know if it still exists. I ran across an article on the Frenchman pool at Quan Loi and found it was leveled at the end of the war. I am returning to Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Cambodia during the month of november and was going to stop and take some pictures. If anyone has any info please advise back.
