We operated in the Central Highlands of South Vietnam. Our base camp was at An-Khe. Some of our places to "visit" were: Happy Valley, Leach Valley, An Lao Valley, LZ Dog, LZ English, LZ Bird and LZ Lima. If you want to see a MAP of this section of Vietnam, here it is. Just click on the word "MAP."

 

1st. Cav Division

Here are the firefights that we were involved in.  Posting this information is in no way an attempt to glorify war.  It is an attempt to show that we were in Vietnam trying to do what our country wanted us to do.  If the decisions of war were left up to the military instead of the politicians, things would have been a lot different.
