I served in Viet Nam from Feburary 1967 to Feburary 1968. When I first got there I was assigned to an artillery unit. Then I was assigned to a 81 mortars unit. I knew I could'nt gain any rank out of my M.O.S. so after a lot of requesting mass, I finally got assigned back to my 1833 M.O.S. I was sent to the mouth of the Cua Viet River. I stand to be corrected, but I believe that was the 1ST Battalion 3rd Marines. I've been trying to search the Internet for information about the amtracker's from 1967 to 1968. I don't recognize most of the information that I come accross like pics, names, stories, etc. Maybe it's because I tryed to forget as much as possible anything that pertained to that time of my life. If any one remembers me please send me an email. I was a Lance Corporal and turned Corporal. I do remember playing grunt in those days and going on a lot of patrols. Glad that I found this site. Looks like there are a lot of people here. Regards, Jim McArdle |
