My best HS friend died in Vietnam. He was 19 yrs old. Never got a chance to really live Life. I think of him often. We played on the same HS football team together. He had a smile that could cover a whole ocean. Still think about my man Mace everyday.

Kregg "Hero" Jorgenson (guy getting shot) is literally named after a rifle, the Norwegian "Krag-Jørgensen". And yes, he's alive and well as of 2023

They all look so young and tense and scared. My dad served two tours of duty in Vietnam and it took a great toll on his health. He passed away when I was very young. Just an awful awful war. God Bless the veterans ❤

My dad was there 69-70, 11B, 1-27th (wolfhounds), 25th ID (tropic lightning). Served in South Vietnam and Cambodia. He hosted a reunion in our town about five years ago. Spending time with dad and his brothers in arms is an experience I will never forget. Every one is a true American patriot and hero!
