My father, ret LTC Donald H. Threlkeld, served as an advisor to the 9th ARVN Division in 1968-1969, MACV, Team 60, reporting to General Tran Ba Di in the Mekong Delta region. On July 17, 2006 my father passed away from multiple illnesses some of which were the result of exposure to agent orange. Dad never complained about his diseases and held strong to spreading freedom throughout the world. He was a solid Christian, great soldier, best father and friend a son could ever have. He always spoke highly of the soldiers he served with in Vietnam. He often wondered what had happened to many of them. I was able to find General Tran Ba Di since my father's death through one of the officers of the 9th ARVN Div. General Di is alive and well and with his family after many years of separation from them. I am trying to find out as much information as I can about my father and his tour of duty in Vietnam. If you served with my father or knew him I would love to hear from you and can be contacted at [email protected] Thank you for serving such a great cause. God Bless you and as my father always told me, "Keep the Faith" .
Please wait...
