I can't imagine what those heroes went through on those days. God bless them all!

My company patrolled the battle area in the Ia Drang 2 years after the fight and found lots of expended cartridges both AK and M16 and one skeleton leaning back against a tree trunk.
Called it in back to the rear and we were told to keep moving and leave it alone.

And you, my friend, is also a hero. I know I've said it before but needs to be said often...Thank you for your service to this great country!
