Currently serving as the Maintenance Chief for Delta Company 3rd AABn and UDP to Combat Assault Bn (CAB). For all the old trac'ers the RAM/RS AAV is the greatest thing that has happened to our community. We hit the deck running in Kuwait/Iraq with a mixed fleet of straight legs and RAMers. Supply support was practically non-existant and the mechs and crewman used every possible means to keep the gear running.

My name is Jim Jordan. I served in Ist Tracs, Bravo Compnay from 10/66 – 11/67. My Company CO was Lt. Sullivan an Annaplois graduate (a good Marine). I still remember my fist night at the Funny farm when the 106’s fired up. I hit the deck and lock and loaded. And the other salts laughed!! I was at hill 55 for a few weeks before going back to Bn hdq. On our way to Cua Viet by way of the phillipines and Okanawa. We had to refurbish our tractors at Hansan (I think that was the name of the Camp) and a little training in the “Northern Training Area”. Then back to Nam for Desoto, and some other OPS. Finally, we were the first to open Cua Viet. I emember people like my crew chief Cpl. Vargas and Bohanan (Ithink both were from CA. Thanks for the web page and Semper Fi!! Sgt. Jordan

I was with 1st Tracs from December 67 til July 69 as a Radio Tech at H&S. I then spent a month at Hq 9th Marines till I rotated. A lotta familiar names in this book Don(Tiny)Law Frenchy Lariviere Capt. Carlson (My first Commo) I saw Don's picture of Greenleaf & Vaughters, that brought back some memories. Vaughters gave me a set of his khakis when he rotated I had them till I got out of the Corps. The reason I found out about this sight is that Tom Williams and I along with 4 other members of his platoon attended a memorial service for Joe Bersh. I spent a lot of time with the H&S Hogs & E-1's I hope some of Trac Rats still remember me. Here are some names Louie the Grape The Wop Jay Boss Ed (Moose)Manning(E-1) Later Dan Reeb

I was a platoonsgt of a platoon of LVT3's trained in the USA and in action in Indonesia fighting the same kind of war you grunts did in Viet. We veterans of teh coy see each other each year in a reunion. We thought that in the 45's the LVT 3 was a top amphib, We used them inland more than 90 km even in mountaineous terrain. Our idea at that time was that a light mortar like the Japs used should have been on board as wel as a flamethrower. I am busy with a rememberanbce album of photographs of our coy and have already more than 250 pictures sampled. A big handshake to all Amphibian tractor personnel and keep them rolling/sailing.

Great Site! I was with Armored co. How 6's in 1962 when it was disbanded. spent 62-63 at Camp Schwab. Then back to Delmar. It is great to see so many marines from that era stay close to the Marine Corp heritage. Keep up the good work.

Semper Fi Brothers, I was with H&S Co. (S-1) from May 67 to Dec 67. I also served as the Bn PsyOps NCOIC for the Northern I Corps Area. CWO2 J. B. Sieverski was the Bn Adj and Gunny Lopez was the Admin Chf. I see Col. Toner still around, Hur Ra. Rember morning rides down Qua Viet River on "E-1's" to go on my courier runs, Night Op's in the tree lines south of the compound, recovering rockets north of the river, C-4 before getting transferred to HqBn 3rd Div Hqtrs, where I took over Div Central Files. Also was in charge of 3rd Div's courier run until I left in May 68. Looking forward to seeing friends. Does anyone remember Sgt Doug Smith, who was Admin Chief of one of the Companies. I spent time with him in Atlanta with the MARTD there. Hope he's still around would like to here from him. Until April 04 GO AMGRUNTS.

My father served with 1st Batt 3rd Marines and was in Cua Viet in May 16, 1968. I am also a Marine Vet (1980-1983). My Father never talked much about the war. However, I recieved some letters he wrote after his passing a few years back and I'm trying to do some research. His name was Richard D Stevens, (Dick,Steve) and was a Sgt in '68. At or around May 10 or May 16, they were successful in an ambush of NVA. Also wrote of an Army operation in the are where eeny casualties were at or around 2500. If anyone can help me with info it would be appreciated. Thanks for your service, and Semper Fi. Billy.

First, thanks for letting me post on your site. I was assigned to 1st Platoon of Charlie 1/3 from 1967-1968. Our unit was stationed below the DMZ at an outpost called C-4 from Dec-1967 to 1968 and I remember you would give our unit a ride across the Cau Viet River. We conducted a lot of Infantry type of operations together. The First Amphibian Tractor Battalion was awarded the Meritorious Unit Commendation for service from 5 Nov 67 to 27 Jan 68 as you know and we just happened to be attached to the 1st AMTRAC during that time and also were awarded the MUC. Thanks again for letting me visit and your site is oustanding. Semper Fi Percy(C 1/3 & H 2/7)

I was assigned to 1st amtracs from 11/65 to 8/66 somewhere south of Danang. It all looked the same to me. I was next door to an ontos and tank battalion. I notice the battalion was moved to another location after I left the Nam. Many memories, some good and some not so good. Lost too many friends. Currently, I am having some slides changed to prints that I took in 1965 and 1966. Semper Fi.

Welcome home 1st Amphibian Tractor Battalion I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I was in Cuaviet 1967 and 1968 with the Navy and I was sure glad that you Marines were there I use to go up river and stay on any boats that ran a ground. My favorite bunker was the tower on the base of the ramp. Well you guys all take my brothers and may God bless. Your Brother Forever Nick
