Army, 5 Years

Joined the U.S. Army 5 months after graduation. Basic training at Fort Knox, Ky and AIT at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. Arrived in Vietnam in August, 1964, took early out and re-enlisted in December, 1964, captured by NVA company in March, 1966 and spent 14 months in a bamboo cage with a guy I met 2 days before our capture. Somehow, we both survived that ordeal. He was severely wounded after that and was returned to the U.S.; I remained in Vietnam until August, 1967. I have written a book about my 3 years in Vietnam (included some good stuff along with all the bad). Anyone interested in reading my story should send me a message to get information about how to get it. Go Arrows! And, God bless the U.S.A. !
