Robert Robbins has some excellent 7.25 diagonal 4th Infantry Patches for sale for the back of your jacket.  Currently he is selling them for $22.00.  Email me at the swamp_fox address at the bottom of this page for instructions on how to get one.

I just added a graphical description of the sizes of various units discussed on the website, along with the rank of their commanders.  It will greatly assist those of you not familiar with Army Organizational Structure.
 

David Nelis was in Delta Company 1/12th Infantry from AUG - 1968 through AUG 1969. He shares his photos of LZ Bass, LZ Dakota and Polei Kleng and an amusing NVA "Stop the War" leaflet.


Reunion in DC with A/1/8 and B/1/8 vets. 
In May 2010 we held a ceremony at the Wall in DC with about 80 veterans from A/1/8, many of whom fought in the "Nine Days in May", the 1967 battle in which so many of their friends were killed.

Lincoln Walkley, D Company, 704th Maintenance Battalion added some memories to the guestbook.

Great photo gallery from Alfred P. Davidson, served as the Senior Medic with Company B, 1st Battalion, 8th Infantry, 4th Infantry Division.

VA to publish new rule, that will make almost any veteran who set foot in Vietnam, and is diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, B cell leukemia or ischemic heart disease (known also as coronary artery disease), eligible for disability compensation and VA medical care.

B/3/12 Link to new site about Bravo Company, 3rd of the 12th.

4th Inf Div Units  has been added to organize the addition of photos, guestbook's, documents, and stories for all units of the 4th Infantry Division in Vietnam and all other units who served with or supported us.  Updated 20 DEC 2009.

Veterans Family has been added to permit the inclusion of stories of the family back home and their stories about the changes in the soldiers returning home and in their lives as a result.  They were affected by the changes we went through and need to share their experiences.  I think there should be a special medal for those special family members, who stood by us, as we struggled with the terrible aftermath of combat.  Added 25 JULY 2009.
