Comments: To Allan Wood downunder: I had a chance to read the chronicle of your trip to the land of the big PX, as described by us over there with boots on the ground. So glad us "Yank's gave you a hearty welcome, especially at our Memorial in Washington. Our own "Band of Brothers" welcomed you and Barb with the spirit maybe only we know. Having been downunder some years ago I see our Aussie brethren are never without words and frequent those places made famous by "Cheers." I wish I could have been there. I was there for the 25th and glad the powers that be made things a tad warmer for you, more reminiscent of your current weather. I'll add my "thank you for your service, Welcome Home, and remembering the 11thACR. Like I told you before, remember a time my track exchanged pleasantries at the Long Binh PX with an Aussie crew and that time I made the mistake of trying to keep up with an Aussie Warrant Officer and Sergeant Major at one of those...ahem....Pubs. A great memory though I will take with me to the Cav's Fiddler's Green. Stand Tall Mate and thank you for your chronicle. Mark...Air Cav and I-Troop, Vietnam 1968-70, 11th ACR. Feel free to fill me in on Vegemite. Tried it in Sydney. I guess everybody had a condiment for field rations. No comment mate! A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year down yonder to "Ya'll." That's Texican for "You All." Or with my New Jersey upbringing..."Youz Guys."

Comments: I'm an H Co. Vietnam vet ('67 - '68), hoping to find some Louisiana troopers who can help me. I live in Milwaukee, WI, and have been looking for a fellow tank crewman for years. His name is Melvin J. Hebert and I know he lived Louisiana. See http://h-co.freehomepage.com/id17.htm for a pic of Melvin. I have info that he passed away on January 19, 1975, but have conflicting info about his grave site. One source says 'St. Edward Catholic Cemetery, West Dale Street, New Iberia, LA 70560', and another says 'Saint Edwards Catholic Church Cemetery, Richard, Acadia Parish, Louisiana'. If you live near these cemeteries, could you check this out? You can e-mail me at: jkhien@att.net
