Quan Loi, and a lot of time in the jungle. Made Sergeant E-5 within the first month, as squad leaders were needed on a regular basis. Looking for anyone that was with C or B companies from 68 through 69. Have a good roster of e-mail buddies going, and would like to hear from anyone that served with us. Have 60 names logged so far.
