I am looking for anyone who served with my Uncle Ronald B. Bishop, Staff Sgt. He was killed in action 9/17/1969 near Doug Tam. He was attached to the following: A Company, 3rd Platoon, 5th Battalion, 60th Infantry, 9th Division. I would just like to hear some stories about him from someone who knew him and was stationed with him during his service.

Arrived in country Jan 1967 and assigned to 9th Div. Charlie 3/60. Moved to Binh Phuoc before the base camp was built and lived in a rice paddy until the barracks were complete. Remember when the monsoon started we couldn't move any vehicles because of the mud. Carried M-79 until I became deuce 1/2 (HQ-41) driver and was blown up Oct. 31, 67 returning from USO show w/Martha Ray at Dong Tam. Moved to the LST 1146 Washtenaw County when they switched C 3/60 and C 5/60 back to respective btn. Would be interested in hearing from any of the original group C 3/60 that arrived at Binh Phuoc when I did. Recognized name Rocky Susshine on your roster was there when he was, have pics of him with Buddy our dog and in boxing pose in front of barracks. Don't know what happened to Randy Nalewagen, unsure of last name spelling (Pineapple), I do remember that Tony Galino drowned while crossing a river. Also have picture of him bathing in a creek not long after we arrived at Binh Phuoc.

The legacy of 1LT Larry Garner, C/5/60, and the legend he created as the "Original Bandido" could not be greater. Many of the great soldiers I commanded were originally with C/5/60.

Since I was 12 when he died, I don't know very much about his life in Viet Nam, but want to honor and remember him for myself and my children. Thank you.

I am the younger brother of Steve Nathaniel Lambert of Bravo Co. 5/60. I served 26 years in the United States Air Force and retired as an E-9. I was in my Air Force basic training when Steve was KIA on Feb. 7, 1968 near My Tho. I sincerely appreciate sites and organizations such as yours because they give information and visuals (photos) about my brothers experience that I could not get any other way. It provides a sense of closure and in a small way a sense of what my brother and all of you experienced and endured during your time in Vietnam. I am proud of my brother and his service and sacrifice to his country, just as I am proud of all of you for your service and sacrifice. I will never forget.

I served with Bandido Charlie after it had moved up to the 1st Inf.
Div. Thanks to the guys in the 5th of the 60th, we had a legacy to
live up to. We did so, proudly. We did our part to carry on the name
"Bandido Charlie" and I think that whether you served with the 9th
Div. or the 1st Div. being part of Bandido Charlie is really where it
is all at.

I was hoping that someone could help me locate the after action report of point me in the right direction concerning an action that took place between a US mech infantry company and 2 battalions of VA? It was a Avery one-sided action. The NVA lost 300+ and the US forces 4 or 5!
I learned of this action from our company supply sergeant while in training in 1968. I found the after action report in an online source a couple of years ago, but a computer meltdown erased all of my information including this report.
I am writing about mech infantry operations in Vietnam and would like to include this action if I can locate information about the action.
I was commissioned Field Artillery, but spent my entire time in "leg-infantry." I never served with a battery after I left Ft. Sill.
I appreciate any help that you can give me. Regards, Leslie
Webmasters note: I spoke with Leslie and sent him the after action report from Firebase Jaeger, which was the engagement in which he was interested. He would be happy to hear from others.
