I served in Vietnam from July 1968 to July 1969, as a hospital corpsman attached to the Marine Corps. I was with the CAP program, and grew to love the people of Vietnam, and their beautiful country. I was just a few miles south of DaNang, in the village of LoGiang. God bless you all for the work that you are doing. Jerry Jenness

I served at Tan Son Nhut on two tours with the 45th TRS, Feb 66-May 67, and May69-Nov 70.
Regardless of what some think, I know we did what we needed to do, we did it as well as we could considering the obsticals we faced.
Thanks to all who served before, with,,and after me.
And let us not ever forget those who gave it all so we could survive.
There is no greater kinship and brother/sisterhood than laying ones life on the line for others in battle.
May God always bless us all.

Sara Bland from Martinez wrote on March 24, 2021 at 10:01 pm

I just returned from Vietnam- I lost my husband fifteen months ago. It was his wish to go back to Vietnam where he was stationed. For all those you want to go back-now is the time because there is almost all gone now where ever you were stationed. You would never know that the country was at war one time. The people were very nice and made me most welcome. The majority of the people are forty years and under, and have no concept what their country was like. I traveleved with a Vetran's Group. So, if you have thoughts of going back, now is the time.
Sincerely,
Sara Bland
