Subject: DaNang Attack (Death of SSgt Jensen)

If what I just read is true about the circumstances surrounding SSgt Jensen's death during the VC attack on DaNang, then I believe A1C Handy did his job in an exemplary manner and deserves consideration for a medal commensurate with his valiant actions to defend a vital position that night.

The OSI was way out of bounds in their behavior toward Airman Handy. I don't understand why they would accuse him of killing Sgt Jensen. Sounds like the OSI I remember so well. Sometimes we were our own worst enemy when it came to internal discipline and punishment. But to insinuate his guilt and cause Amn Handy grief throughout his life while not officially charging him with ANY crime is particularly hard to understand.

Best wishes to Mr. Handy and his family. Sounds to me as though you did your duty and I hope you are formally recognized for your actions on 1 July 1965.

Respectfully,

Lamar Miller, MSgt, USAF (Ret '88)
