| Comments,Praises,Gripes, What's On your mind? | Just finished with this great site. Seen some pictures from around DaNang with sites that are as real in those pictures as they were when I was there. I am getting ready to show a good friend this site who did two tours in the Nam. He is trying real hard to live in this world. He has been going to meetings to deal with time in the Nam and it really is helping him. I am sure this site will help him also. He is also a Marine Corps VietNam Vet He still loves the corps and always will. SEMPER-FI & GOD BLESS ONCE A MARINE ALWAYS A MARINE |

| What Unit Did You Serve With? | My dad, Thomas Zwetow, served in Delta 1/5 |
| Comments,Praises,Gripes, What's On your mind? | My dad really didn't like to talk about the war very much with us. I guess he wanted to spare us the gory details. I know he loved being a Marine and was very proud to serve his country and fight a war that no one else thought should be fought. I once interviewed him for a chance at getting a scholarship and the one thing I remember most was that he believed what he did was right and never regretted it. If anyone remembers Tom Zwetow and has something they'd like to tell me about him, my family and I would greatly appreciate it. Great website. You're finally getting the recognition you all deserve!! |

| Comments,Praises,Gripes, What's On your mind? | I would like to say that I was almost in the war by enlistment on my own. But I was too young and my father wouldn't let me sign up at age 17 he ran the recruiter out of the house because he lost some brothers in other wars. He said he wasn't going to lose a son to. I was told by the recruiter that I could go in and do clean up work in Viet nam. Because that were I wanted to go. This was in 75 But the was over then but I still wanted to go. I was also looking for any information on a friend of mind that had died a little over 2 years ago. His name was Thomas Zwetow. He was a very dear and important friend THE BEST a person could ever ask for. He deserves to be honored for his service to our country. He was severely wounded in line of duty. Please if anyone could help give him the honor that he deserves I myself and his family he left behind would greatly appreciate it. He was an honorable man that words cannot express. Thank You all for the act of courage that you showed in that political bullshit war. You all deserve it. Thank You from Steven Tobisch |

| Comments,Praises,Gripes, What's On your mind? | I served from 66-68 and had friends that were lost in Nam. Thanks for the web site. People from this new generation need to know the sacrifices that were made for them by people who loved their country enough to fight an unpopular war that was un-winable because of political decisions. My heart will always be with those men and women who care enough about their country to give their lives to see that their family and friends remain free to live their lives with-out censorship. Thanks for your continued efforts. Semper Fi |

| What Unit Did You Serve With? | USN MCB 71 |
| Comments,Praises,Gripes, What's On your mind? | There were sixty seven of us that ran a camp right off Rte.1 on the northern perimeter of Tam Ky. Shared responsibility with a squad of 9th engineers for sweeping half way to Da Nang every day and built a native hospital. Also gave support to TOC. All these years I can't seem to shake the feeling that I was there this morning. I still see the faces covered in red dirt as if time had no dominion. And the smell transports me over time and space to a place so burned into my pshyche that I will never fully be home. Sometimes I just cruise the net and try to navigate the shattered remnants and search for an elusive understanding. |
