A war with no cause, no benefit to the USA, our country leadership should have been tried for war crimes. Can you relate to our forces in Iraq, support those braves Americans.

Good website. You all have done a lot of work on it. Some of the pictures bring back memories. I came over in Aug '65 with the Army as a member of Task Force Alpha's Chemical Section. After we landed at Nha Trang the Section found out that just after we left Fort Hood Texas, they received a telegram telling them to keep the Chemical Section in Texas. So it goes. I guess the Army didn't want us used as a propaganda subject to claim we were preparing for "unconventional warfare"
The seven of us were loaded onto the first aircraft to Sai gon and assigned to HQ & HQ Co. USARV on Tan Son Nhut Airbase. Here I spent my last 9 months in the Army. Since my only MOS was a CBR Staff Specialist, there were only so many things they could have me do. The NCO's all had Infantry training so could act as door gunners. I became a chauffer, courier, gofer, draftsman and general flunky.
I guess my only achievement was that I qualified for the good driving award - drove in excess of 10,000 miles on the streets of Sai gon and Ton Son Nhut with no accidents. Plenty of close calls (6" or less), averaging about 1 per day. In an area where the natives were known for trying to get hit so that they could get a cash settlement fron the military.
I did get to tour around town though. It was a pretty place at least while I was there
