Cpt Gillis, May 25, 2009, 6:38PM EDTyou mean down the road don't you? coming out the gate and up went to the C-Team med hospital where the Yards and their families were treated and down went to the C compound a short walk. I used to go into the NCO club with my team all the time, thats what tigers were good for no rank. Never spent much time with ring knockers at the "O" club too busy, gettin in trouble. elsewhere. My memory is pretty blank in spots but I remember certain things like the club MY DOG!, my medic Goldy"blowin himself up in the the barracks, Mag. Charlie, Maj Mapp, Florenoy?, SGt Mac. .I took my company from a guy who got killed in Tet and left it to a guy who got killed in Ben Het. I guess I was just lucky.
Names come and go with me I 'm still in a fog these days. Did you know Marty Green, I was on op with him when he got cut in half. I used to tell him not to walk the trails like he did. Had to go and tell his Cambodian girlfriend who was pregnant he wasn't coming back. We shared a house downtown Pleiku together. -
Donald H., May 25, 2009, 5:44PM EDTTiger vanished! Maj. Charlie went back to Ft. Bragg then on to Ft. Devens & I heard he went to the10th Gp. in Germany.
When I got to B-20 the walls were a blue but paint was scrounged from the Engr's. & the Yards painted the club. The plaques were moved when the club was expanded. Did you ever go up the road to the II-Corps HQ to their club?
