If you want your communication posted to the
public guest book, please use a subject line in your email like this:
Subject: (Guest Book yes) (Email no) The parenthesis and key
words Guest Book and Email trigger my programs and make it easier for me to post
your entry. The Yes or No let me know whether to post your message to
my guest book
and whether to post your email address along with the guest book entry. If
you do not wish to post your email address, you could simply ask them to contact
you through my email address. I will forward the emails to you and let you
decide whether to make direct contact.
When in doubt, I will assume that your email is a private communication and will
not post it. I tried automatic guest book forms, but was not satisfied with the reliability across
browsers and operating systems. Simple email appears much more reliable.
I look forward to hearing from all of you.
Thanks....Homer

Hello Homer Steedly.
I am looking for a man named Joe Cook who was in the 4th
Div. I don’t know what unit. Time frame 1967/68. We were in Basic and AIT at Ft Polk. After arriving in country were were sent to the Fourth Infantry Division. I was in the 1/12th Infantry. I saw
Joe once on a hill top north west of Dak To for about 15 minutes. If you know of him or how I might be able to follow up looking for him, your help would be greatly appriecated.
Thank You

4th Infantry Division, Vietnam
FEB 1969 - MAR 1970
"Cuddles", that is how I was affectionately known. I was a radio operator sent
out to LZ Mile High the morning after arriving at Camp Enari on Feb 15, 1969.
Spent just about all 13-1/2 months on the several LZ's in the area. Returned to
Base Camp five days before DEROS. I would really like to get in touch with some of
the guys I served with in the Commo Section. I have been having a lot of thoughts about
them and the Nam lately. I don't have names, as we used code names and nicknames
a lot. Some
I remember were Hillbilly, Flash (our SOI guy), got that name because when he dropped of
the SOI papers, he was gone in a flash. There was Andy Capp - one of our
repairmen, Osumi - generators, and Hawaii. Served with SSG Brewer and LTC Carter before he was killed.
I did make it to the Monument Dedication a few years ago.
Thank you for your time.
Having Been Led By Love Of Country,

I was assigned to Co A, 1/12, 4th Inf Div from Dec67-Dec68 as a rifleman. Currently I'm in the process of recording some of my recollections of those years, so that possibly grandchildren and great-grandchildren might be inspired to make diaries of their own experiences.
