Memories For This Unit

Best Friends
Returned from hospitals in Japan. Trying to make it back to Alpha Company after being reassigned to it. Pulled off plane and returned to States by the Army. The end of my interest in an Army career.

Best Moment
Being sent back to Viet Nam and reassigned to my unit.

   

Worst Moment
Either the hospital administrator at Oji Hospital, Tokyo, disregarding Army Regulations and failing to promote me to sergeant as my unit had ordered or being removed from the plane at Thanh Son NNhut airport on the way back to my unit and sent to the states.
