Very nice web site. I was with Kilo 3/3/3 in 1968.
The photo's of Con Thien brought back memories as that was where I was sent when I first arrived in country in Dec. of 67. I am planning to attend my
1st reunion this July in Florida . Looking forward to seeing some of my brothers that I haven't seen in 40 yrs. For those who were also with 3/3 and haven't visited our web site you may want to take a look. It is also a great site. www.thirdmarines.net.

Landed at DaNang May 67 was at ASP-1 when compound was at the top of the hill. Moved into new basecamp down by the Brig. Was there for the "Big Bang" when the dump blew. Took out most of hill 327. Spent a lot of time sleeping at Red Beach and 3rd Tank Battalion. Moved alot of bad ammo to demo hill after that. Primary MOS 2311. X-mas present for 1967 was AK round through my thigh building ASP-2 by Happy Valley. Have lots of good memories from that time, but some bad ones to. Lost some people in our mine field sneaking back from the vill. Would like to hear from some of the guys from back then if they are still kicking. Are you out there Jimmy Miller, Ray Hartzell, Jim Couch, Bobo ? Total time in country was May 67 to Oct. 69. Was part of first pullout of 3rd Marine Div. Sure was a long boat ride home. Proud to have served with each and everyone of you. Semper Fi !!!

Served with 1883rd Comm Sqdn. (AFCS) at Phu Cat, '71 as an Air Traffic Control Radar Repairman. We kept that MPN-14 running with spit & prayer! Base turned over to VNAF in November, I stayed on as part of the AF Advisory Team until the end of the year. PCS'd to Cam Ranh, Bien Hoa, TSN and finally finished tour at Korat RTAFB via way of Bangkok!..(will never forget the Grand Prix!..)

Always tried to take the good from the "Nam experience"; the people, culture, beliefs and pass it along over life's journey, while remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice and didn't have that chance.

Maybe each of us made a difference after all..

I served at Tan Son Nyhut Air Base during the TET "68 Offensive and Counter Offensives.
I wish to commend Sergeant Sharkey, SP6 Dickinson, and SP4 Taylor, US Army, for their courage, sacrifices, and contributions during this time that tried the soul. They have never received the just recognition which they so justly deserve.
Men, you upheld the honor and tradition of the United States Army. It was my supreme pleasure to have served with you. God Bless! Chief Warrant Officer Johnny G. Lukosky, US Army (Ret)
