I served in Vietnam from March 1970, until March 1971.
I was with D Company, 84th Engineers, at Ahn Kae. They had just moved from Tuy Hoa Airbase. I was in the earth moving platoon. SFC Gatty was our Platoon Sargent. SSG Jammer was our Squad Leader. Spent most of my time working on QL1, just below Pleiku, staying at LZ Action. Then, they turned us into C Company 589th and moved us to Buon Ma Thuot. I remember a guy named Niestrom (spelling?) because I served in Germany with him in the 80's. There was a guy on our guy truck named Baldwin. The gun truck's name was The Bounty Hunter when I was on it. After that, I think they named it, "Silent, But Deadly." I ran a 290 that had "West -By God- Virginia" painted on the blade. How do I join the 84th Engineers Association?
