| I served with the 1st 327th Inf. Bn. from December 1965 until May of 1966 as battalion radio operator. I joined Tiger Force in May 1966 and served with them until I got my orders to go back to the world in December 1966. |
| I was in Sgt. Christian "Frenchy" Girard's squad along with Doc Deffenbaugh, Danny Wanamaker, Bucky Burrus, and Jacobs. I remember SSGT John Holbrook, Sgt. Rose, and Jimmy "Gimme Point" Clark. I was the squads RTO and M-79 man. |

A note of remembrance........... SSGT Christian "Frenchy" Girard was killed in action April 1969 while guiding troop ships into a "Hot LZ" in Cambodia. Rest In Peace Bro
