Message: Began my tour flying U21's with the 201st in Nha Trang. Late in 71 or
early in 72, all U21 support flying was consolidated with the CAC being the the
sole unit for USARV/MACV with Dets at Da Nang and Nha Trang. A short time later,
the CAC was moved from LTN to TSN, where I moved to in early 1972. Was a real
joy flying the 21's and working with everyone in the 201st and CAC. CAC XO was
Chuck Ledford, IPs Mike Patterson and Jack Sprague. Also Jerry Jenson, Jim
Leathers, Bill Schweinfurt, Bob Kirksey, Dick Wire, Lynn Olson, Bolinger,
Peterson and others that names now escape me. Maybe someone has a copy of the 71
- 72 yearbook to share. Great time, good memories. The most fun I ever had
flying.

Message: Hey Guys,
Great memories. Since I've never met anyone who had heard of
Long Thanh North, I was beginning to think I imagined the whole thing. Then I
clicked on a picture of personnel and found myself surrounded by Horning, Kintz,
Kayton, Kelly, Eggerichs, Sidera, Martinez and Shipley. Damn, we were young.
Kelly and I were on the verge of a connection in 2000 but a
hurricane wherre I live wiped out all my contacts for a while and I missed the
connection. If you hear from him, tell him I'm still kicking.
Now, I'm a musician on an island called Ambergris Caye, in
Belize. Yeah, us Baby Boomers still know how to rock.

Message: Spent the majority of my tour at LTN as a dog handler. Often
wonder what happen to allot of the civilians that worked on the base after
Saigon fell. Recently read a book called A Viet Cong Memoir. Was a
great read and mentioned Long Than. The author was one of the founding
members of the NLF, the political wing of the VC. Both of his brothers
fought on the side of the South Vietnamese and they were sent to and internment
camp by the NVA at LTN. This book gave a whole different perspective on
the war. Interestingly enough the author of this book had to flee to
France, and is still living there today, with other boat people a year after
Saigon fell. Seems like the NVA decided allot of the NLF had lost their
usefulness. Ironic isn,t it? Great site. Thank You!

Message: I got to Vietnam on orders for the 4th Inf.Div. at Pleiku but my
brother was a member of the 125th ATC so I was reasigned at Long Beinh and
joined the 210th while it was still in the old French Quarters at Ton su Nhuit.
Did a lot,alot of sandbagging at Long Thaung North. The pictures I'm seeing on
the web site look much more civilized than I remember the ole/new camp. I was
sent to the 25th Evac Hosp. at Long Bein in late Aug. 68 with Hepatitis. From
there I hit two more Hospitals and was discharged as a patient and from the Army
on Nov.14, 1968. Anybody know where Sgt. John Martinez is or what happened to
him?

Hi,
My dad was the battalion commander of the 210th CAB in 69, and I
was curious if you recall him. William (Bill) F. Williams… I believe
he would have been a Lt. Col at the time. He died in 2000 and I am just
doing some digging around on the internet…
Thanks,
David Williams

Message: I never worked my MOS either but spent many a day building bunkers,
stringing wire, and filing sand bags. I did go out with the Civic Action
group on our little missions to win hearts and minds to local vills. Every
time we got off the main road I believed we were going to be ambused. We got to
some littl village just after the VC had blown up the school. The local
civilian defense people were terrified. It was nerve wracking and we all wanted
to get the heck out of their as fast as we could get the supplies unloaded. I
volunteered to fly but I failed the flight physical since my eyes were too bad.
It was a long and boring tour and I have to say I don't miss it except some of
the people I met.

indicator set and missed the turn to the base. I saw very interesting sights
along the way ("funeral" processions), near the village (unit wanted
to see if I would draw fire), and at LTN (such as the QT-2PC). I had a young
troop with me that kept me guessing (and more concerned) than the enemy.

Hi:
I got to this site looking for information related to the Afgan situation.
It's great. A lot of menories came back after al these years, (34). From
90th replacement I went on tho the 210th to replace the companys armorer who was
leaving in december. The unit was in Saigon then. Eventualy I became the
companys armorer. I learned on the job. I remember a lot of the guys in the
pictures. I laughted a lot when I saw Donovan. He was the guy
in permanent burning shit detail, cleaning all the letrines. How can I
forget the new showers? The water was warm during the early evening. I
have many photos, but tey are slides. I havent seen them for many years.
I found a few photos and made some copies which I will mail to you.
Regards from sunny Puerto Rico....

I served in the battalion personnel office, as records clerk for the inlisted
personnel from HCC, 25th, and 184th companies. In June of 71 the 210th stood
down and everyone was reassigned. I stayed in Long Thanh as a garrison unit. I
was assigned duties of taking care of civilian personnel, (houch maids, club
girls, and messhall helpers) Tough job but someone had to do it.
I still remember playing numero uno during formation for guard duty. (one person
got out of guard duty)It sure turned into a ritual getting ready for guard duty
so you could get out of it.
I hope that some of the people that worked in the office and hung around
together will drop a line. Great site keep up the good work.

I worked on the engine crew with some great guys. I can remember some names like

on the engine crew who was probably the senior mechanic and who taught me all I
knew about PT-6 engines. He was on the net team when they moved from Siagon and
I sure wish I could remember his name.
Does anyone remember the rubber tree counting detail? I participated in that
venture.
Some might remember me as the guy who shot the hole through the roof of my
hooch, including the light fixture. It was my first night and we had just had a
rocket attack, so after we had returned into the hooch one of the guys knew I
was spooked and yelled VC on the roof1 shoot quick! so I did and got two weeks
of extra duty.
