My brother, Dennis Michael Faith, served three tours in Nam with the 1st Marine Division, He was Honorably discharged in 1973. He was killed in an auto accident in 1984.
I served in the US Navy from 75 - 82

In his memory, I wanted to thank all of his brother Marines who made it back from the conflict and survived to this day. Semper Fi!

I miss my brother.

I spent three days as an enlisted man in the US Air Force attached to the ROK Capital "Tiger" Division in April 1972 calling in close air support with F4-C fighters carrying hard bombs and later, napalm. I was in my second tour in Nam, and scheduled to go back in July 1972 and be discharged. I watched the ROKs and the NVA slug it out for that period

I am looking for any information that I can get regarding my Daddy's duty station. He was wounded at FB Rokason (am thinking the paperwork has it spelt wrong but perhaps not) RVN, Feb 16, 1971. He was part of the 101 ABN / 2BC. I believe with the 506 the paperwork that I have is pretty yellowed and the type is not real clear. I lost my Daddy when I was 5, so I have many questions I have been searching a long time for. Where abouts is this Firebase located? Did anyone out there serve with him, that may recall him? Or specifically the land mine going off, or anything, if they were in his platoon? ANYTHING!
God bless to all! I would be gracious for any input or directions. I have gotten all I can from the govt. paperwork.

Was one of three CID Agents at Phu Loi, RVN l971.Route l3 was the road we travelled by jeep and alone wearing civs and only carrying a .38 pistol. Our AO went north to An Loc and the firebases along the way. In all those travels. I was only fired upon one time by VC. Rounds went over the top of the jeep. Put my head down, grabbed a gear and kept on going.Incoming about every night and was penetrated by VC trying to blow up choppers. The duty was good but I was glad to leave in Dec 71.The 3 of us had a small office and small sandbagged houch we lived in. Our mail came to us at Hqs, Long Binh and travelled 13 to get our mail. We hand delivered our investigative reports to Hqs also. We ate at the O club there at Phu Loi. I worked with Viet police and since I spoke french I could communicate very well with the older ones. I was still glad to catch the freedom bird.

A scene from the past (Phu Loi, RVN Field Ofc, 8th MP Gp (CID) l971. Was dispatched to an unnamed fire base, unnamed location other than North, to investigate a shooting where death occurred. Left Phu Loi base by 334 Assault Helicopter who took the three of us to firebases that were hot. This AM I took the milk run as the pilots called it. We left prior to daylight and it just broke light when I jumped from the bird as it was not safe to touch down. I had my cams on, .38 in my shoulder holster and my tag along bag over my shoulder to keep my hands free. I ran thru the tall grass and a posted sentry at the firebase yelled for me to stop and not move. I thought he was going to shoot me. We started talking from the distance between and I was sadly informed that I was in a trip wire mine field, that had not been made safe. They (base personnel) came and got me out. The sentry on duty that saved my life was known to me. I had earlier investigated him for possession at Phu Loi. In our subsequent conversation he told me he had no hard feelings about me as I was doing my duty and the possession charge awoke him to bad things that could have happened to him. I thanked him for saving my life and he smiled and said we are now even. At this time I was a career soldier with 17 years service and my unnamed hero mentioned above was 18 years young who grew up fast. Again thanks from my family and this old retiree to that young man.
