Welcome Home my brothers~ I was with "B" 3/187th from Mar-Aug 69. Anyone serving in the Company at that time, please feel free to contact me. Does anyone know of a 40th Reunion planned for 2009 to honour those that were on "HH?" It would sure be an honour to sit down after 40 years and finally talk with those with whom I humped the Ashau, shared C-rats, a wet poncho liner, ammo, and added their blood with mine as we accomplished the impossible~ Mike 6 August 2008 - WIARTON ONTARIO CANADA
