I'm looking for members of the 57th Transportation Battalion Hq & Hq company that served in Chu Lai from 6/5/1969 to 6/5/1970 or any member of the other companies assigned to the 57th at that time. I'm in a battle with the VA concerning my claim for PTSD. I have to prove that the stressor happened. I was in the EM club one night probably within the first few months of my tour, there were probably 20 to 25 GIs there and the was a loud explosion just outside of the club. We all took off for the bunkers and just a few yards out the door I almost tripped over the torso of a soldier that had blown himself to bits. Arms, legs, & head all blown away. The rumor was that this soldier planned to throw explosive devices into the club but he was wasted on BTs and blew himself up. If anyone out there remembers anything about this event, please contact me. Thanks!!!
Please wait...
