Yesterday, January 20, I stopped to remember those whose lives were taken prematurly on the sands north of the Cua Viet River.To those who fell my prayers are with your families and friends. For those of us who survived that day to carry on and remember, I say "Semper Fi and my prayers are with you and yours also." I remembered some lighter incidents that occurred--New Year's Eve 1967 every one was hootin and hollerin, poppin flares (red green white)and if i recall the only one who got caught was Dan Reeves. No matter what Dan was always in the s**t for something.One other was when we didn't have any beer (that was a crisis) Al Brown decided to drink some REEF mouthwash---what a hangover. Again my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

I just looked at the newly posted cartoons/drawings by Andy Anderson and I laughed and laughed nearly to tears! Andy really captured the reality of life for us all in his very humorous illustrations. Great job Andy!

MARBLE MTN street sign... For those of us who served near Marble Mountain for some part of our tour, you may be interested in the availability of a copy of the street sign that sits at the back entrance to the site of former Tustin Marine Air Station. The back road to the station is called Marble Mountain and the City of Irvine, CA indicates the road name will continue after the site has been redeveloped. I was trying to get the original sign, but it will stay in its current location. I did, however, manage to get to the company that made the street sign for the City of Irvine and have ordered an exact replica. Just call me sentimental! The cost was $48 plus $10 Shipping and Handling. If you're interested, simply email me and I'll provide the contact information. The company is called SC Signs.

I am researching my father's military service history (WW II). After serving initially with the 8th AAF he eventually ended up in Germany with the 6951 Prisoner of War Temporary Enclosure at Remagen. When the camp closed my father was assigned to the 69th Amphibian Tractor Battalion, a reorganization of the 69th Tank Bn, I think. His discharge papers indicate he was a Sgt., 69th Amphibian Tractor Bn. I can not find any history on this outfit other than when it was taken out of service in March 1946 at Camp Kilmer NJ. Can anyone help me with information about this outfit, if it was attached to any other units and what it was expected to be doing before it was taken out of service? Thanks much.

Please see posting in the AmTrac Forum Section and respond there. Thank you.
