VIETNAM WAR 1968-1969 Photo Gallery by Richard Calmes at pbase.com

VIETNAM WAR 1968-1969

This is where I started my lifelong love of photography. For the first half of my tour, as an Architect, I designed and supervised construction projects. Then I discovered photography! For the second half of my tour, I was a "Combat Photographer". A few of these images were taken by another combat photographer whose name I cannot recall. These photos have been in storage for 35 years. I have some negatives that I have scanned. For other shots, all I have are prints. I also have a few slides that have mold on them. All were developed and printed using water that one can only describe as wet. A glass of it was brown and barely clear. If you think this Gallery has merit, please vote so others may see it.

If anybody served with my Dad, USMC James "Jim" DeMoss Miller, an 0311 grunt with 3/1 3rd Platoon Lima Company in 1969, he recently passed and my sister and I are struggling to learn more about what he never talked about. He only briefly mentioned his best friend "Juice." Would LOVE to hear from anyone who knew him, insolentjaguar at gmail or 202 751 1642, we would be eternally grateful!

These photos are AMAZING. I read a bunch of other comments and got all teary eyed, My father served USMC. He wound up fully disabled after he came home. I don't remember him well as he left when I was 4 and his disability was psychological. But I know he was a hero once upon a time and I appreciate being able to see photos like these because it's a glimpse into his life too. I hope that everyone who is looking for help here connecting and learning about loved ones gets it. Not all heroes wear capes, many never came home and many others came home broken. Seeing this helped me.

Henry Ortiz ,I was in country from 1967 to 1971 and last tour was in Anh Khe. During that last year i was a keep gunner and i remember that we delivered some diesel to the front lines where the tanks were running out of fuel. Anyway when we got there nobody wanted to deliver the fuel so i jumped in a half track and took them myself. My half track disabled and i went M.I.A. When my unit left me for dead. I finally found my way back and they cut me open and sent me home. Don't know how long i was missing but it must have been quite a while.Hope someone out there remembers me.

Eugene Allen Martin, 2 tours in Vietnam, flew Huey Helicopters, received a purple heart. Born 1943, passed away in 2006. He would never talk much about this war, understandable. I just..can't find ANY info on him during his military career on the internet, or pics. I have yearbooks, if you call it that. I've got his Army records, certificates, medals, etc... but nada, zilch on the darn world wide web. Anyone, still out there that might remember him? I'd love to hear it. Thanks...-April Martin

Tabitha Nadyne Buckles		20-Feb-2022 08:02
Hello I want to start by saying thank you all for your service. The bravery is so admirable. As an American born & raised, I can never repay all the Veterans for their sacrifices. My grandfather is Sgt. Larry Buckles. He is really like my father. He adopted me at 10 & raised me my entire life. He is all I've ever known. He is not only my grandfather - he is my dad, mom, best friend, & hero. He was drafted in 1966 & November that year he was sent to Fort Bragg then to Fort Jackson for training if I'm not mistaken. He then went to Korea & was in Camp Alex Williams from April 1967 - May 1968 he did a 13 month tour. He was promoted to Sgt while serving. After his tour, he was stationed in Fort Hood for a while. His discharge certificate stated he was released in 1972. I'm so proud to be his granddaughter. He lost all his military things in a house fire. He was devastated. He not only lost his home but all his regalia. I'm trying to figure out how I can replace his uniform & insignias. I want to surprise him because his father's house caught fire like 40 years ago & he's not seen nothing military related since then. I want to surprise him with a replica of his uniform & insignias just to show him that we haven't forgot his service to the country. I want to show him how much we appreciate his sacrifice. If anyone knows how to replace these things or even just knows him feel free to text 2764699399 or email tabbi44@gmail.com. I am so appreciative of all you brave people. Thank you for your sacrifice for our country. You'll never be forgotten. God bless

Vernon J Hall		10-Jul-2019 23:22
My name isVernon J Hall. I was a soldier in co B of the 125th signal battalion based in Cu Chi after arriving in Vietnam 4-15-1968. After spending several weeks as a radio operator at semi-mobile fire support bases, there was a call for volunteers and I agreed to go to a signal site as a security force for a month assignment(this was in the 1st day or two of July). That site turned out to be on top of Nui Ba Dinh, and the only way in and out was via helicopter, and that was only when the mountaintop wasn’t enveloped in clouds! The month ended up being 6 weeks before we were replaced on 8-17-1968 late afternoon. The site was hit at 2AM the next morning in pouring rain and fog. 8 soldiers were killed, and 15 enemy soldiers killed before they abandoned the attack. Those of us that left the day before were quite fortunate, to say the least! I would like to get in touch with the guys who shared the fighting bunker and sleeping hooch for that 6 weeks. The bunker/hooch was right next to the helicopter landing pad and had a separate min-bunker with a 50 caliber machine gun, which wasn’t operative because it “needed parts”!! And if you never found out, this same base was overrun 5-13-1968, something they never told us when seeking volunteers in July!! Please contact me at: vernjhall@gmail.com or 651-210-2179

He is from Brunswick, Georgia and is buried there in Greenwood Cemetery. Very little info about circumstances of his death other than small arms fire. One John Alberti Foscadi served with him and mentions him in n online tribute, but I haven't been able to locate him. Grasping at straws here. Can anyone help me find more info on his death.

Searching for my mother's father with little information that I have been given by my grandmother. He was stationed in Nha Trang 1968-1970. His last name was Kelly. My grandmother's name is Thanh Thi Le and was 26 at this time and gave birth at 27. He was a few years younger than her. My mother was born on July 28th, 1971. She's never met her father and I pretty sure he has no knowledge of my mother's existence. My mother decided to try the ancestry site and sent her DNA in and matched with a 1st cousin by the name of "Katheleen Lambert-Hackkett" I know finding him is a long shot but thought i'd try anyways. If you have any information please email me!

"TO THOSE WHO HAVE FOUGHT FOR IT, LIFE HAS A FLAVOR THAT THE PROTECTED WILL NEVER KNOW!" I came upon this site while surfing the net and knew that the above statement would have special meaning for all Vietnam Vets.. I served with 3/22nd, 25th Infantry Division out of Tay Ninh as an infantryman. Fought the NVA on the slopes of Nui Ba Den twice with numerous firefights in and around the area bordering the Cambodian border. Remember your Christmas in Vietnam? Mine was spent on an ambush patrol near the Cambodian border. After 5 months in the field, I was pulled to the 93rd Evac at Long Binh to work with soldiers suffering from combat fatigue. Over the last 10 years, I chronicled my tour of duty and the response has been overwhelming. With your military background, you may find it interesting. There are presently over One Hundred 5 Star Reviews worldwide I believe that you will relate to this true story of the fight for Nui Ba Den and the struggles and sacrifices that the soldiers who served their country in Vietnam endured. Thousands of Vietnam Veterans have proudly endorsed these memoirs. Please check out the website at courageonthemountain.com with the accompanying introduction. It will make you proud for your service and all the men and women who served our country during the Vietnam war. I proud that you made it home brother! Thank you for your service and May God Bless!

Hi my name is Eligio Roman, I could swear that I spend the whole year of 1968 in Pleiku, Hispanic young and silly wasn't thinking about keeping records at that time, now old and still silly, I would like to find people that either remember me or were on the same unit at that time, my unit was "628th Signal Maintenance Company" witch I believe was part of the "62nd Maintenance Battalion" I remember that we used to wear a plastic patch color orange that had 62nd, 628th, 149th and another unit, I have one of those but can not find it at the moment, I also have a few pictures, some names I vaguely remember are, Estes, Dupond, Reyes, Martinez. I remember our sleeping quoters were tents with wooden frame and sandbags all around them, our working place was a either concrete or wooden building maybe 100 or 200 feet away from the company area, we had a mess hall, half round metal building as an Club and groups from out of country used to come to entertain us, I know there was a medical facility close by if not in the same area, I remember TET offensive, they never made it through at least on our side, they did came close though. Well don't remember much after this, if anybody care to help you can reach me at "roman40@verizon.net" I'm in New Jersey, USA. Thank you, Sincerely E Roman

My name is Linda Le and I'm looking for my biological father whom I've never met. I have limited information. His name is Larry Richards, he's from TX and was in the US Army 1st Calvary Division between 1966 and 1968. He may have had red hair. I think he was discharged due to a bar fight. He was engaged to a woman back home also named Linda. They were to be married in 1968. My mother's name is Thanh Thi Le. I was born 4/16/1968 in Saigon.

"TO THOSE WHO HAVE FOUGHT FOR IT, LIFE HAS A FLAVOR THAT THE PROTECTED WILL NEVER KNOW!" I came upon your site while surfing the net and knew that the above statement would have special meaning for you. I served with 3/22nd, 25th Infantry Division out of Tay Ninh as an infantryman. Fought the NVA on the slopes of Nui Ba Den twice with numerous firefights in and around the area bordering the Cambodian border. After 5 months in the field, I was pulled to the 93rd Evac at Long Binh to work with soldiers suffering from combat fatigue. Over the last 10 years, I chronicled my tour of duty and the response has been overwhelming. With your military background, you may find it interesting. There are presently over Ninety 5 Star Reviews. This is the true story of the fight for Nui Ba Den and the struggles and sacrifices that the soldiers who served their country in Vietnam endured. Thousands of Vietnam Veterans have proudly endorsed these memoirs. Please check out the website at courageonthemountain.com with the accompanying introduction and pictures and you'll gain a new respect for all the men and women who served our country during the Vietnam war. I proud that you made it home brother! Thank you for your service and May God Bless! George Reischling

I served with B Troop 1/17th Cav 82nd Airborne Div in Viet Nam 1968-1969. I have contact with Reid Lyon, Charlie Severino, Rae Dehnke, Bob Thuel and Clint Dykeman. Can't seem to find anyone else. If anyone out there recognizes the name please respond via e-mail. I'd love to make contact. Arrived in '68 in Phu Bai. Met some great guys at the 101st NCO club then had to move south. While up north I ran an ill-fated ground surveillance operation that buried sensors along trails at night that would self-destruct with any movement. We found much human movement every night but the sensors were unreliable and failed all the time. After a while we loaded all of our Tracks on LSTs and sailed south to set up base camp alongside Tan Son Nhut airfield. We secured the Hoc Mon bridge, ran convoy security, defended the airfield, ran night ops and patrols out to Cu Chi tunnels and rubber plantations, secured the engineers while they stripped back the dense foliage in the area, found many tunnels, weapons and vc personnel and my personal favorite the late night village cordons that would either trap the vc living in the village or initiate some night fighting while watching Arc light strikes in the distance. If anyone remembers any of these activities then there's a good chance you might remember me. I would love to hear how any brothers are doing. God Bless

Superb images! It is said that a camera only captures what it is that is put before it. Wartime negates this fact. Often, the older people portrayed as soldiers are barely beyond school age. I was one of those kids. I served 68, 69 and 70, D-Co/84 EBC. After reading through the many posts and comments I find that your pictures set off a firestorm of emotion and frustration, and a release for those that served and those that are still searching DEEP for answers. Excellent! Thank you one and all for your service.

I know my father's last name is SCHNEIDER, SCHNIDER or SCHNYDER. My mom told me his first name is WALTER or WARREN...not sure! My father met my mother (Le Thi Hoa) at PLAZA HOTEL(NAVY CLUB) in TRAN HUNG DAO, SAIGON, but he left before I was born. At that time my father knew my mom was pregnant. He had to transfer from SAIGON to DA NANG. They disconnected from that day. I've never met him or have any idea of his whereabout. If you have any information about my father, please email me: tiffanyle4871@gmail.com Please share my post to help me locate my father. Thank you so much for all your help I really appreciate it!

My brother Granville Lynn Noland aka "Shorty" served in the US Army Company D, 20th Engineer Battalion (combat), APO 96318, 4 February 1969 to 3 February 1970 There was an incident that happened. It occurred during a convoy mission from Kontum to Dak Tho. About halfway to Dak Tho one of the dump trucks back wheel went over a land mine and was blown up. It was a mine that was missed during the mine sweep. Several soldiers including Lynn were injured by this explosion. He is receiving VA disability, during his disability review they asked him to account for his time spent in Vietnam, he included this incident. The government has stated that this incident did not occur. While this does not bother my brother it does offend me. The men and women that serve this country should be recognized. While this incident will not change his disability rating, it should not be disregarded. Lynn’s memories are starting to fade quickly and I want him to know now that the government recognizes his sacrifices during his service. A few of the men who served with him are: Hooper Davison Dennis Oliver Mark S Smith David Will Ronald Vizzo If anyone knows these men or remember this incident I would appreciate an email alicetaylor62@gmail.com Thank You Alice Taylor (Bigbee)

He had served two tours in Vietnam prior to duty at Quantico. He made E-7 while at Quantico. He changed my life in all the best ways and is a tribute to all the Corps stands for. I think of him often and would just like to thank him for the very positive effect he has had on my life.

Today I posted the followingon Woody's web for 3/187. I want to thank you for sharing your photos. When my husband was shipped out of country, his camera and photos disappeared. Here s my post in case your readers have any info to help. Thanks and Welcome Home! My post: My husband was on Team 7, chosen by the Col. The 4 men on Team 7 all had red hair. When he was medivaced out, his team was the last one that was together. His job was recon. He had been in a pagoda when it was hit with RPG rounds. The blast gave him a concussion and caused him to have seizures. He had schrapnel all over his body when he reached the hospital in Japan. After that firefight, he said hhe was dazed and acted like he was on autopilot. He remained in country for some tie. When he was medivaced outy, he was having a problem with sores all over his body. They told him it was something rare and he needed to be sent back to the states for treatment. He returned to Fitzsimons. Subsequently he has applied for a Purple Heart but was turned down because he could not give the location of the incident or names and verification of others to prove the incident really happened. His name is Jerome Witt (aka Jerry), after their medic was killed, he took the Aid bag on missions and the guys called him Doc. He also carried the radios and ammo. He was there in ’68-’69. He can only remember one name and that is Ernie who was from Jacksonville Florida and had worked for White’s Grocery before being drafted. I am looking for anyone that can remember Team 7 and help locate any of the members. Perhaps someone knows the First Sgt name and he might have some recollection. Jerry’s military license to move freely about VietNam and to live in villages, was signed by aman named Ralph H Ballard (rank unknown). Perhaps he may have a recollection. Our phone number is 360458-7062 if you have any details that might help. I see how Jerry struggles with things even today. He has PTSD and I can’t even imagine the things he saw and lives with today. I appreciate this site and am proud and thankful for him and what he has been through. I am thankful to all of his brothers of this war and all I can say is THANK YOU AND WELCOME HOME!!!

I was in the 61st. Transportation Company in Dong Ha from Jan,1968 to Dec, 1968. I have searched so many sights trying to locate anyone from my company. It's it never existed. We hauled fuel, water, ammo and other supplies to the outlying firebases. In Dec,1968 my company rotated back to Cam Rahn bay where they were decommissioned in late 1969 and became the 360th Transportation Company. If anyone knows anything about this please email me.

My name is Matthew and I am trying to find anyone who served with my uncle with the 101st during the Vietnam War.. Unfortunately my Uncle passed in 1988. His name was Weldon Wiladay Reagor Jr. He went by the nickname of Buzz by our family but would not know if he would have gone by that while he served. I only know the little of what my father told me. I was told he served three tours of combat duty and was in a RECON company and was a Sargent. I believe he was in Vietnam the years of 1966 thru 1969 or 1967 thru 1970. He was a tall man of 6ft4 and had red/brown hair. If anyone knows him from those days please message me at this site. Thank you.

Do not have his military ID number. The only thing I have is his birthdate and SS#. Anyone know how I can get some military records for him so he can be buried at a military cemetery? He recently passed away a couple of days ago and so far we can find no records to substantiate his military service, but he,indeed, served in Vietnam. Can anyone help me through the government maze to find those records. Thanks.

It isn't right that we have to lose loved ones and friends. I'm not some hippie I Believe its horrible that this killing and Conflict and destruction of this beautiful Planet ever has to happen I hate to see the suffering of the human race continue plus including the fact that wars destroy good land to grow food and support plant life and animal life. We're not the only living things on this planet and its NOT just Man-kind's Planet. This Planet belongs to all LIFE sentient or not.

IN 1967 THE 173rd Airborne Brigade AKA "Sky Soldiers" stormed hill 822 Dak to Vietnam. An unnamed Sargent in Company B was awarded the Silver Star. 2 Bronze Stars. 2 Purple Hearts. He returned them giving the reason you don't need a medal to do what is right. The surviving members of the 173rd know who he is but will respect his wishes and still refuse to talk about it. Does anyone know who this humble hero is? For those that don't know, the 173rd Airborne Brigade Infantry Division was deemed America's if not the world's fiercest fighting force. I served with the 173rd in 1967 and remember the talk about him returning the medals but not sure if his name was Al or Cal?

Richard Dowis Johnson		17-Jul-2013 01:27
I am the wife of a recent retired Msgt and we have started looking for medals awarded to my father from Vietnam. His name was Richard Dowis Johnson and he served from 7/1967 to 5/1969. His helicopter was shot down but he feel out before it crashed. He told my mother that he was "carried down the mountain by the biggest black man he ever saw". My dad I don't believe knew who this soldier was. He said he passed back out when he realized it was an American soldier carrying him. Dad dies January 31, 1979. I have my husbands shadow box over the fireplace and I want to honor dad in the same way. So, he was from Tucker Ga, went to Walter Reed then Fitzsimmons for multiple back surgeries, he was in the Army and made E-4 rank. He was a Specialist. I have tried all the traditional was for a DD-214 etc but no one has record of him. He died in the VA in Atlanta but they "do not have his records" neither does the Archives. Anyone remember my dad? Any information is appreciated.

My uncle, Jimmy Ray Moore was KIA in Vietnam, 5 May, 1968. He was an M-60 gunner with the 173rd Airborne Brigade. 5 May 1968 was one of the most deadly days for our troops during this war. I would love to have someone contact me with possible photos of my father's youngest brother. Jimmy Ray Moore was known affectionately as "Mule", because of the way, I'm told, he humped his 30 pound machine gun. Should anyone have memories, and/or photos of him, please contact me. I am Anthony Moore. Phone number is 404-277-8147. Email address is sgt1194@yahoo.com. Thanks.

Two of my uncles served in Vietnam. One was in the special forces, Felipe F. Suarez, and the other was a helicopter gunner ( I think), Cesar A. Guerra. They never spoke of their experiences, and I can't blame them, given what I've read about the experiences of other veterans. However, if anyone here served with either, please contact me at leguerrajr@gmail.com. Thank you.

My Name is Bill Esser I was in Viet Nam 69/70 stationed at Vandergrift. Was with H&S 3/4 when they were pulled back to Camp Hansen in Okinawa. While in Nam I was with an 81mm mortal squad. Sgt. Gary Stutsman, LCpl. Gary Agard, Jonzy, Bill Smiley. So many memories are flooding back in. Like perimeter watch on 861 Alpha watching air strikes over Khe Sanh and victory rolls over top of 861. May God bless all that served and bring peace to their souls.

I'm a 4th INF QM Iraq Veteran, My father was Donald Ray Price, 4th infantry div. Vietnam 68-69 DaNang-68 Tet Offense. Boot Camp: Ft. Leonard Wood, MO {now at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery}. I never understood growing up why my dad was the way he was, what made him say the things he did or the way he acted. Loud noises scared my dad to the end & Vietnam haunted him his entire life! When I returned from Iraq my self, I finally saw, understood & knew my dad for the first time. I now know the meanings behind the words he spoke, why his actions were as they were. I understood the pain in his being, the sadness in his heart & the PTSD he suffered from that went untreated!!! I am the daughter of a Vietnam Veteran & I know what we all did to survive & come HOME!

David Buzzeo		06-Jul-2012 06:50
Richard: I am Canadian and in 1968, I was in second year university. We had many American graduate students who were avoiding the draft. We also had some graduate students and professors who had been to Vietnam. The Americans who had not been to Vietnam had lots to say about the war, those that had been there said very little, if anything at all. It was a strange time, we could see the war on TV, yet it seemed unreal. As a result, many Canadians were very ambivalent about the war. It moves me to see all the veteran responding to your photographs. The war must have been very hard on them. It is impossible for me to know what it was like to have been in the Vietnam War. However, because of your gallery I am starting to get feel. Brilliant gallery and I will be back often to read more comments. Way too many to read in one evening. Cheers, David Vote

I lived in HHD SUPCOM and worked in the 80th GS Group compound from June 69 to June 70. I took turns driving and riding shotgun for Univ. of Maryland Far East Div. professors who we picked up from the air base before dark and then drove them back across the river after class in a Dodge pickup, one guy sitting on the sandbags in the back with a loaded weapon to make them feel safe. As a retiree I check my email everyday. Make the subject Danang or Vietnam.

Hello I recently came across 200+ slides taken on the Mekong Delta. Most appear to be taken on UFC 7 (Harbour Craft and Transport) Were taken 1966-67. There are a lot of shots of the men doing everyday things (Christmas, Laundry, Haircuts, even showing off a huge new back piece tattoo). There are also several shots of a small brown dog from puppy on up to grown that the sailors appearently kept as a pet. Would love to share these with someone who might recognise them and appreciate them. mistressfaerie at gmail dot com

Where I need help is if any brother remembers me In Country PLEASE write to me. I have been working on this for 3 or more years even hired an attorney, have gotten letters from people who know i was there, what will cinch is if one of my brothers could remember me. Thank you and may God Bless you.

This is a very wonderful gallery. My Daddy served the same time his name was Lou Melvin Baylor Jr. He was my best friend and he shared all of his stories with me over and over and over but ever time he shared them it was like a brand new story and I enjoyed listened everytime even though every time we would both end up with tears streaming down our faces. And I knew that it was a hard thing for him but he had to share his pains and the few fun times that he experienced in the war with someone and I am glad that he choose me and I am thankful that you choose to do your gallery is just as vivid as his stories. Thank you and all that had to share the that moment in life that seemed like forever in a lost world. Bless you all!

He was given a Commendation Medal for instructing his troops to start building 20 foot sections on the Nhon Tri Bridge that had been blown-up.

My name is Tina Seymour, My father was Byron Seymour, he was a Navy man stationed in DaNang in either 1968-69. I do not know much of my dads service, i know he harbored a lot of anger and pain in relation to the war and some things in it. He became a terrible alcoholic when he returned and would never tell anyone what he saw there. He would only say that he could never tell another soul why he couldnt come to terms with it. He passed away in 1993 from cancer from that he got from drinking heavily for so many years. If anyone out there knew my father, please contact me. Thank You

Co B 3/187 101 Airborne Vietnam 68-69 My Uncle Robert VandenBerg was WIA April 25 1969. For several months I have search the web trying to find anything with no . So let me tell the story. It was April 25 1969 in Vietnam and their mission was to try to take "Hamburger Hill" from the top. He was in 1 of 3 helicopters. His was shot down and he was thrown from the helicopter. When he finally come to a stop he had rolled down the hill. He was alone and his rifle was snapped in half from the impact. He had 2 broken legs and a tree branch went thru his legs. It was quiet for a moment then he could hear the enemy talking and moving around. Then he heard someone call his name and ask him where are you and are you hurt. He told him were he was and that he was hurt and his rifle was broke in half. The brave soldier made his way to him and sat protecting him until they both could be rescued. My Uncle Believes that brave soldier name is Terry Gann. He see in 1 more time after that day on the hill. He was at the Hospital in Hong Kong. My Uncle received a Purple Heart and several other medals. Once he was back in the states he never told anyone about his timein Vietnam Several months ago I found my Uncle living only a few miles from me. I had not seen him in 12 years since my Mothers Funeral. I decided to go surprise him. He did not even know who I ways til I told him my name. He live in an RV that is parked at the back of a Dairy. I as the one who also got a shock. He keeps to himself. Leaves the dairy only to ride a bike to a local store. I spent several hours with him. I asked him if he would tell me the story of how he was wounded in Vietnam and the above story. He final told me the story. He said that was the 1st time he had told anyone. He also told me that he was the lucky one. He missed Hamburger Hill. He said he would have been killed there.He made it home and alot of did died on that damn hill. If any one knows any information or if there is any vets that was there or may know my uncle please get in touch with by email shelli.godinho@yahoo.com. Thank you to all the soldiers who have served to keep us safe.

Very good photos. Iam volunteering for the Education Center for the Vietnam Memorial Wall. They have started a campaign "Call for Photos". They want to put a face to every name on the Vietnam Memorial in DC. They are asking anyone who has a photo of a Vietnam Vet who was killed in Vietnam, any photo, it doesn't have to be military to send it to the Education Center. Go to www.vvmf.org/thewall and it will explain everything and how to post a photo of your loved one. There are many volunteers working on this, I happen to be working on getting photos of the Hawaiian fallen soldiers. Submit any photo you have so your loved one is represented on the new photo wall.

I was with the 1Bn, 2nd of 320th/ Bravo Co. Air Artillery Assault, 101st Airborne.. Went on Patrol with the 1Bn, 2/327th Alpha Co. 71' Two weeks later we ended up in Phu Bai and were on our way for an R&R at China Beach.. Three of us were from the arty and the rest Grunts.. They took 8 of us off the Chinook for guard duty and the rest, 36 men, went down in the Chinook out side of Da Nang.. First we thought they crashed into the sea. Found out 30 odd years later, they were shot down and couldn't be found because of the jungle... Was just wondering if there's still some one alive who was taken off that flight. It happen just after Thanksgiving, we were at Fire Base Eagle for Thanksgiving... Two days later, they went down and I was on guard duty in Phu Bai... Any one left alive from that time? Cpl. Gary Pierson, (alias Zapper) 101st Airborne... " Balls of the Eagle Sir!" Love the road sign pic... Kind of hard to find people you served with in the 101st, when most are dead...... War, what is it good for? Target practice of course. Peace, try some, you might like it. And remembering what and where and when is a bitch... Especially when you didn't know where you were in the first place and trying to remember 40 years later..... Good Luck to all looking for some one.. It's been a long, long, long time since I felt fine...... garyray ^i^

For those looking for missing veterans, information or photos: Try checking unit reunions. Ask them to post your request on their site or at their reunion. I was an Air Traffic Controller at Cu Chi Feb 70-Nov 70 and Phu Bai Nov 70-Jun 71. We had detachments at every airfield in Vietnam. I'm attending a reunion in Reno at the end of May 2011. If you can specify the unit or basecamp, I can post requests at our ATC reunion. I worked as a Psychiatric Nurse on a PTSD unit with the Veterans Administration. I know how important information and "closure" can be. Chance encounters are more common than people realize...like now. Until May 19, 2011 e-mail robtaylorsailor@ charter.net

My dad has some powerful images from 1966-1968. Before the brigaide there were engineers that build the bridges for them. they were all there they saw more than we will ever see. they are true american heros that saved the country for us..... why becauxe they we to protect the family they loved. To take care of the future. So remembered some just didn't want too....but we must remember because if you don't know history then it is and the mistakes or rights we made they will be forgotten and we will never move beyond that. The USA is the best and we can teach...we just need people that are teachable, and accepting to freedom and not scared or not misunderstanding of it....

Richard L Jones - I am now an historian living in Peterborough, England, but was a freelance photographer working out of Saigon Mekon Delta area 1969/70. Now writing a book at last after 40 years about my experiences. I'm looking for any information on Miles Stevens, also freelance, disappeared somewhere near DMZ 1970. Believed to have died in an arclight strike (hearsay only). Any information at all would be appreciated. Have tried Magnum etc but no joy. Please contact at quintus1@live.co.uk

I am a budding artist who also served a second tour during the same time period (Dec 67 to July 69)and am very pleased to see how you have maximized your life after 'Nam. You are a Great visiual story teller. Would it be alright for me to put some of your work on canvas? It would be done to make of a profit, only for my own pleasure. I always work from photographs, but usually my own. Once Again, Thank You!!

My husband was stationed at DaNang, Viet Nam in 68-69. He was in the "Mini-Tet" during that time. He saw, heard, and particiapted in the events. He would be interested in hearing from any Marine who was there at that time. The overturned C123, Mag 11 killings, A-4 flying into the hanger, air refueling over Hanoi, ect. are of particular interest to him. Duane E. Fogerty

In responding to Vina Nguyen, a student exchange from Vietnam. America is a free society and the government do not brain washed their youngsters. Unlike, the communist in VietNam. You have to study the propaganda of the communist party. You should be thanksfull to the host family and the open arm of American generousity. I'm a victim of the communist and the by product of the regime "boat people". We do have American History in high school level. If you wishes to study in depth about American History you can enroll at any University or College. WAR is an evil word but some time necessary between Good & Evil. American services men and women has fought brilliantly to defend a young democracy in South VietNam. Please take this time to study about the truth of war in VN Vinna. Thanks again to all American service men and women who fought in VN. Thanks AMERICA for embraced the Vietnamese boat people and give us Freedom, Liberty & Justice. I'm a proud AMERICAN. God bless America!!!!

Russ Colbeck		10-Feb-2009 12:34
I am a 40 year old UK citizen born 26 November 1968. This is going to sound absolutely crazy but I think I may have been a Vet in a previous life! Whether I was US or Viet I am unsure although my partner says I speak some kind of eastern sounding tong in my sleep. When I was young I was in a children's home which I escaped from. I was chased into a corn filed by police I took cover by diving down into the corn so they couldn't see my position. I was 8 years old how would I know that would have worked. When I was in my teens I was touched by Vietnam war films or shows, So much so my guts would feel wrenched buy what I was watching. Also recently I was watching something where there was machine gun fire, I noticed my finger spasming as though it were on the trigger of that gun that I was hearing. Guys I am not a kooky nor do I mock the heroic actions of almost all who gave their lives in those times. Guys I don't know whether or not reincarnation is something that any of you believe in but I strongly feel a connection to these times and I feel a desperate need to find out more. My name is Russ Colbeck and I am looking for archives of photographs maybe i looked the same! Anything that I can look through. Please if anyone has any SERIOUS suggestions please email me at russ.colbeck@yahoo.co.uk Thank you and god bless. Sincerely Russ

I loved your site but as usual there is little about the brave men of the US Navy that played an important part of the War. Though many prople wrongly think we lost the war I'm still a proud member of RivDiv116 PBRs of the Delta. We did our job and politics gave the war away in France. Check the records and you will see that after the '69 tet we were in postition to fingt into any part of North Vietnam we wanted. Because the people here in America stoped supporting us the war went to the enemy. We lost nothing but brave men that realy wanted to and could have won. TO GOD BE THE GLORY

I relate to your comment on developing your photos in water that was described as “wet”. My love of photography started in the 1st Aviation Brigade photo lab in December 1968. Timing photo development in chemicals made with this “water” and in the heat was a real trick. Consistency was never possible and much photo paper was wasted, but it was better than sitting in the O club and getting drunk every night and I brought back over 1000 negatives and memories that lasted a life time.

As a veteran of the war, I continue to visit your site with awe. Your photos are personal, just like the war. Many of those who were not there.....just don't get it. For those who do.....I offer my thanks on behalf of the brave who served....and those who died doing what we as true American's have in our blood to do.

Thanks Richard Calmes for the great pics of Vietnam. It must of been tough for you guys over there. I wish I would have been old enough to of been there. At that time I was only 4 years old. I am very proud of all the personal who have served our country for the freedom we have now. Not only Vietnam but all the encounters we have been involved in through out our lives. These are great pics man.

Brother, your pics. took me back from my teac reel to reel to Jo Jo, our company dog and my 60 ca. that I humped. I was in the 563rd trans and traveled from Long Bien to Qui Nhon to Pleiku back to Long Bien and your pictures of the Vien Nam maid, kids, taxi etc. are F------ right on and brings alot of my memories. I miss my buddy Dale Robinson, my Brother in Arms, now I am 58 and still kind of messed up and trying to go for disability benefits, got one for hearing loss but nothing yet for my PTSD. Thanks Brother Lanney

One of the most incredible works i ever saw Richard. More than talented, it is real. True people, images that tell us a story. But the memories will be with you for the rest of your life. I understand what it means to you, my dad was military in combat in Africa during the end of the 60's beginning of 70´s. I saw many pictures like this, althought in diferent places and for diferent reasons, the story is the same. Thank you dear friend for sharing this with us. I wish you only the best to you and your family, be happy and be well Richard. Not only deserves my vote as well my consideration and respect. You are an exceptional photographer Richard Calmes.

Hey Richard, I just stumbled across your page. Great to see you have posted all these pics after all these years. You were the one that got me interested in photography in good old Phu Bai when I arrived in "68". It seems like another life now but you helped me get through one of the toughest times in my life as a young kid in a strange land. Maybe We should get a reunion together someday before we all get to old to travel! Thanks again Friend! Mickey Watford

This gallery is a very moving one. I was conscripted into the army in 69 and spent the next twelve years in and out of camps from Ovamboland and Angola through to Mozambique and the debate on whether it was justified or not will not be open here, but on reflection I really would have loved to have had the equipment I have today to have recorded those rather sad times for us all regardles of which side of the fence we were on. This is a moving gallery for me.

Great pictures here Richard. Some pics makes me think of the Kate Bush song Army Dreamers. "'What could he do? Should have been a rock star.' But he didn't have the money for a guitar. 'What could he do? Should have been a politician.' But he never had a proper education. 'What could he do? Should have been a father.' But he never even made it to his twenties. What a waste -- Army dreamers."

I am moved by your pictures and the people who still reach out. We need to remember, history has a purpose to teach, we just need to listen and act. A womman in response to your pictures asked if anyone knew her uncle who gave his life in vietnam and it reminded me of the photos on poles by the WTC site. People wantng to know if anyone had seen there loved ones. Life should be respected. All humans matter.

B&W photography has amazing power. These are beautiful, poignant. I'm old enough to remember the very end of the war: was living on an AFB at the time, so it was really big news. My father was there in '66 w/ USAF; he never took any pictures, so the only images I've seen are from others. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Former French paratropper 1RHP (brevet #212151) during the 80s and have heard a lot of stories about Indochine (French war with Vietnam) and then the US fighting Vietnam. "Nostaliques beautifully sad pictures". Very sadly resemble WWII pictures. Glad you got them on the web ... it helps keeping the sacrifices of the soldiers alive, whatever their side and somehow worthwhile. Also help realizes the pain the population endured. Great Pics. Congratulations.

Bill Comrey		19-Dec-2007 05:19
Richard, you have a great collection of photos displayed here. Like you I discovered photography during my tour in 68-69. I started off with a cheap Kodak Instamatic and came home with a first class Topcon 35mm camera. I was an Aviation Parts Supply Sgt for an aviation unit in Nha Trang and we flew all over the II Corp area supporting the Signal Corp. You've got to wonder what became of the hooch maids and Vietnamese that worked with us during the war. It's difficult to comprehend that they've aged with us over the past 40 years. Welcome Home to all.

Dear Mr. Calmes, My dad was also a combat fotog in Viet Nam 68-69 for the Army. There was a couple of rolls of pictures that he took for a reporter that represented himself as from National Geographic. He said he took some really great pictures, but he never saw them developed or got his rolls back, and National Geographic had no record of the said reporter. Do you know of any stories like this in Viet Nam or have any information you can share. It would be nice if one day my dad could get his pictures back. When he came back he was stationed in CA and only took one roll of film the whole time he was there bc he was so put out by how his talents were used as a fotog. I think if he could get his pictures back it would kind of close "the loop" for him so he wouldn't feel it was all a waste. I think those may have been the only pictures he took over there that were not of dead bodies.

Horizon		07-Dec-2007 23:52
That's very dramatic.. I don't know what caused that war but I know that loads of innocent people died or got injuried... R.I.P for all of them as well as people who died in Hiroshima and Nagasaki....

i am an Vietnamese exchange student in U.S. And here, in this state not many people-i mean young people know about Vietnamese war and Viet Nam also! some of them dont even know how to pronounce the word Viet Nam exactly! i was so disappointed of that anyway! in my country, i had to study history of that war when i was first grade and keep going until now! it always is reminded to us how horror the war was! and what the people under that war had to stand and see and pass... nowadays, these young American person dont know anything about that war-the dark past, i wonder because that was 30 years ago! not so long time! and it s still hurt many people also in VN and U.S, my host parent even got some family's members died in the war, too. and it mean they didnt let to be studied of that when in secondary school! some others in high school but they dont know, either. so, they completely support the nuclear bomb even though they got 2 big events in Japan under the second world war(Hirosima and Nagasaki) and the Iraq, i am so amazing of it! they are so.... i just mean a little young American here not all but anyway, that presents for a side of U.S that i used not to learn before...

I was there same years, 101st and 25th divisions as a surgeon. Soon history will be after us as it is now sopping up the memories of the WWII vets. I am in the process of scanning my slides [but only have a few up now]. It took me 3 tries in different years to get up to the Wall in Washington...I as you know too many of them and their stories...when I get there I can hear them...see them and maybe worst smell them.

This is a very good collection thanks. I just met a vietnam vet who was also in the americal division and he is wanting to know if there was a book that was given to each veteran when they left the country it may may what is considered a in country remembrance type of book and if there is where can he get one? I was with the first Infantry 121st signal corp and they published an in country book for the division and its units and campaigns. I had it sent home but I forgot about until I recieved after my Mother passed away. Thanks Al Reynolds My e-mail is areynolds15@carlina.rr.com if you reply put in the subject line americal book.

My best friend had to flee as a child, from this war. I have heard stories of what it did to many, but these pictures show me in a way that is almost experiential--this is amazing and awesome photojournalism, Richard. The story in each image touches a human chord that only the truly honest expression can share, and you have achieved that here, many, many times over. I thank you for the raw power of these images, and transporting us to a place that some of us may never truly undestand, but have begun to, in your photographs. With much respect, Aloha

Dear Mr Calmes, I was too young to remermber correctly the Vietnam War ... I saw a lot of images of this war .. However, I know that this gallery is just a little and "beautiful" part of the war. There was a lot of horror scenes like every other wars ... But, behind your photos, we can imagine and feel a very little part of those horrors scenes and that, means your photos are very very powerful and they transmit me, the "feel" of moments ... That's what we call good photos. When we can feel the instant of the photo is taken, about 1/250th second, and live that moment, the real sens of the photography is there ... goal is touched ! Congratulations for thoses photos but overall, for sharing us thoses moments ... which were too long for everybody, I am sure .... All my respect to you and to all soldiers of that war! (PS: excuse my bad english)

silvia marmori		29-Jun-2007 21:58

Guest		26-Mar-2007 06:04
What a powerful, revealing, touching collection of pictures from this costly, ghastly war -- a war now being compared to Iraq, with good reason. There is so much here, I will return and review again, and post comments on many of your pictures. For now, I am adding you to my FAVORITES, another way to guide viewers to come and visit what you have so magnificently posted. I do not think we can know enough detail about the terrible sacrifices of the men and women who were involved in Viet Nam during and especially after coming home. Seeing these haunting photos grabs at my heart and makes me wonder at the short-term memories of our "leaders", politicians, military brass -- that they cannot recall from one war to the next the toll that is taken upon so many lives. I, too, think that this gallery (and probably the real horror pix you have and didn't publish here) ought to be made into a book, lest another generation forgets just how unglorious killing really is. Bravo, Richard!

Very professional photo collection. I was at 3rd Marines, 5th Comm Batt next to Marble Mtn. Air Facility from June 1968 until July 1969. I too was young, dumb, and did what I was told. I took virtually no photos while there, maybe one 36 roll. Don't know why, guess I felt the whole experience "just another year"!! I find as I age, upon reflection, the sights, sounds, and experiences I had have had a much deeper effect on me than I realized. I have developed strong feelings about our involvement in VietNam and other wars, and I still don't know what is right. Maybe God will enlighten me one day. My life experiences and gray hairs as proof have taught me one thing; when good men do nothing, evil flourishes.

Get it? Not just pictures but a reflection of a reality. Many lives lost memories captured in gloss. I love your surprises.

Very moving gallery, Richard. I was in college until 1970, and was never called up. Many of my high school friends went to 'Nam; some never returned. Some returned in pieces and took years to make peace with their memories, while others never could. I'm glad you made it back safe and have maintained your love of photography for the benefit of us all. V

Guest		04-Oct-2006 06:50
Such candid, unexaggerated images are the psychological icons that one accumulates in life, standing out like the subject of bokeh in the memory.. Did I phrase that correctly? The images so deftly caught during war are to be appreciated, not only for the quality of the art, but for the moments caught in a camera's eye, out of the endlessly teeming moments and struggles that make up a war, that so many have endured so the rest of us may not have to. Galleries such as these are important for the psychological knowledge as much as the aesthetic perusal. My boyfriend sends his regards and his gratitude for being able to see these pictures. True love of country has not been instilled in the younger generations.. So again cheers and thank you for the chance to view these.

i have an adopted p.o.w.who i belive is still out there.i blame the u.s. gov.for all casualties in nam.if we were properly trained instead of a were going to kick ass mentallity we would have not lost all those precious lifes.in these last words i qoute, "I cant't promise you that I will bring you all home alive.But this I swear before you and before Almighty God;that when we go into battle, I will be the first to set foot on the field and I will be the last to step off and I will leave no man behind. Dead or alive,we will all come home together. So help me God."Lt. Colenal Hal Moore.one last thing before i go.over half the percent of homeless are Nam' veterans.when they came home everyone looked down on them that is no way to treat someone who lost friends and family fighting to get you where you are now.think about that.

Emily Hodgkinson		19-Sep-2006 21:57
Hi, as a 16year old New Zealander who has studied both of the Vietnam wars i just want to say that your images are good but why were you in Vietnam in the first place. Maybe you belive the same as me, that both America and France should have never entered into these civil wars in Vietnam. Ok to help the poor yes, to give aid yes, but to go into a country that is trying to become whole again i think not. truthfully, Emily Hodgkinson

Tom Briggs		15-Sep-2006 15:12
Richard ... another excellent chronicle of life in Vietnam. I was there twice (1966-67 and again from 1968-1969. Looking at your photos, I can smell again all the fumes from the cyclos and the unbelievable traffic. If one wasn't there, one cannot imagine it. Nice work ...

My father served in VietNam in 1968, I believe. His name was Gary Hanley and I am trying to find out all I can about him and his time served over thre. I am not even sure where he was. He was an infantry man, fixed tanks is all I really know. I have a pin of his which is a purple shield with a gold unicorn on it. He had a volitile relationship with my mother, he died of what I beleive to be "agent orange side effects" at the very young age of 36. My mom doesnt talk about him, and I am not even sure if she actually got to know who he beacame after the war. He was from Jamestown, New York. If any one knows anything I would be so very grateful!

It's hard to believe that these images were not published. An incredible documentary. Many of these are iconic. Even without titles or context, one would immediately be able to place the time, the location, the war. A gallery that deserves to be seen by every user on pbase. Adding my vote as a miniscule contribution to that goal.

Thankfully well before my time. the only knowledge I have of this war is what I have been taught at school in history... and all teh movies and series such as Platoon, Hamburger Hill, and Tour of Duty. There are some great journalistic shots and my two favourites here are the "Chopper and GI" and "Me". I am glad that you magaged to walk away from this war and turn to the gracefull ballet scenes instead. Your style has improved but your eye for a great shot was already apparent, well before I set foot on this earth... A combat photographer... and still passionate about teh medium. Impressive with a capital I!!!

My father served in Vietnam from March 1968 to 1969. I recently found a bunch of his old slides from the war. He was a navy surgeon, attached to the first Marine Division in a few different locations: Da Nang, Phu Bai, Saigon and on some of the Navy Vessels of the Coast. I will get the slides transferred over to the internet and share them with you. I apreciate you sharing your slides and stories about Vietnam. It helps me to further understand what my Dad and the all of the people who were there went through. I am proud to say that I am a son of a Vietnam War Veteran!

Richard - Thanks for visiting my images and your comments. And a special thanks for posting this collection. I was in the Mekong Delta in '67, but have maybe 2 photos of my time there. I returned for a visit in the 90's while living in Hong Kong. I'll let you know when I post those on my gallery section later. Great collection. Thanks!

its strange in a digital world of DVD and instant 24 7 news , a black and white image which can been seen , felt and pondered tells a far better story , Richard what you have is more then just a record , thanks for posting them .....Larry B , UK

Richard, Your pictures make me nostagic and bring lots of memories as it takes me back to where i was growing up before becoming boat people refugee. Thanks for this wonderful trip to the memory lane. It's precious.

Richard, I was in grade school during the vietnam conflict. The nuns would always have the news on and had us praying for our boys who were fighting the war. I have always had a great interest in what you guys went through over there. Never could find anyone to give me their story. I guess its always been as uncomfortable for me to ask as it must be for vets to tell their story. It is through photo collections like yours , that I am able to capture a little of how you lived and died, your joy and sorrow, your fear and calm,your pain and suffering. Things I was fortunate not to experience firsthand. Thanks to you and every american that served us so proudly........................Stan

Wow. What a moving and educational collection of photos. I was born in 1969, so although I don't remember the Vietnam War, so much of my childhood was impacted by it. Thanks for helping me "see" a little of it through your camera lens.

Wonderful gallery; glad you posted the shots. I voted for it. When these photos were taken I was in college. Got drafted in 1971 and ended up fixing communications equipment in Frankfurt, Germany.

arminb		08-Dec-2005 21:37
I am a kind of sorry, to 'steal' the first place in the popular galleries, your journalism is so much more, than my 'fractal' view - yet, I can only place one vote for this great gallery! Cheers, Armin

Chris Clifford		08-Dec-2005 21:02
Amazing pictures that truly capture the time. I just returned from Vietnam - while there visited some of the battlefields and the major cities - the war still permeates every day life and conversation even though most of the population was born after the war. If you have a chance check out my pictures of vietnam. thanks for your pics!

Guest		08-Dec-2005 20:12

I served in Dong Tam in the Mekong Delta in 68... who will forget the TET Offensive. Your photos are top notch and bring back many memories. I have written a book of haiku and prose about the war in a pdf form, called an e-book. I would love to e-mail you a copy. Contact me, brother. robert wilson

What a fantastic portrait of wartime Vietnam! Your gallery really touches the heart of the matter: the Vietnamese people. I visited there a couple of years ago and was struck by the friendliness and warmth of the people. How thankful we can all be that they now live in peace, free to go about their own pursuit of happiness.

Definitely vote worthy! In fact, it would be a shame if these were never published...fantastic work! (as a side note, I still occasionally use a camera my dad bought when he was in Thailand, about the same time you were in Vietnam...a Topcon RE Super...it still works, for the most part!) Thanks for sharing these!

"...If you think this Gallery has merit, please vote..." Are you serious? How about publishing a book. These have such merit, my words fail me. Seriously! Kind Regards USAF Ret. Thanks for the pics.
