I'm a student at Mckinley High School. I used this website for my social history project. It is very impressive for Vietnamese in America to know more about the culture. Thank You.

Need to get in touch with Marines in the 1st Marine Div. stationed in Vietnam sometime August 1969. My husband has died with diabetes, heart disease and other ailments which I think are Agent Orange resulted conditions. I need to find Marines in his unit who are also suffering from same ailments. Please e-mail me and let me know. VA refusing claim for compensation. He also suffered from severe headaches and sudden muscle reflexes (kicks and punches during sleep). Do any of you suffer from these ailments?

I'm planning to return to Nam during Jan. 04. I want to revisit places I was stationed during my 'short' tour (March - June 29th, 1969). If anyone can help me locate on a map or get me the village names of the places our unit was...please contact me A.S.A.P. I was in Fox 2/1 3rd Weapons Plt. No Name Island - Marble Mountain and Pipestone Canyon are the only things I recall. I also remember a large lookout tower we had to climb up every day for guard duty. Please Help! THANKS

I think you do very good works to heal the war. We need a lot of hands like yours to do the jobs. I had helped to translate letters for member of yours.

Thanks for this excellent site.
First, I truly want to thank all of you who served & for your dedication. It is because of you that I, as a Vietnamese child during the war, get the opportunity to come to America & enjoy the freedoms that you have fought for. I am now a successful businessman, having graduated from college, served 5 yrs as a Navy Lt., 1st Persian Gulf veteran. I left in 1975, & have been back to Saigon for only 4 days in 1998.
Thanks for the excellent site of the history of Vietnam, it is the first time that I have visit such a site with the very complete summary of its history.
Again, thank you for your service.
