However, I am unsure what company or brigade. Unfortunately, the VA can't locate his DD214 from that era & the info I received from them doesn't list it either. He didn't speak much about his time there (Hamburger Hill) but he was there (@ the time he was a private). I am holding a memorial service for him in a few days & would like to know if anyone served w/him & could share anything you could remember.

But i was killed on hamburger hill . I remember it . I was the first guy on the hill in 1968. I thought i could ambush them. But i was wrong. So when they started shooting I slid down the hill & got on the Island that already had two guys on it. which made me the third guy on it. I shot a few time and stopped shooting cause whats the sense in wasting bullets when you can't see what your shooting at . The reason of all of this is cause I would like to know who I was. That if you can help me find out. After I was killed I did go to HEAVEN For two days thats in HEAVEN . On earth is two years . I'm 40 years old now but I was 21 when i was killed . And 21+40=61+2=63 which I was gone for 2 years. So it adds up . cause i was born in 1948 . Not only that but i remember the knife I had. We was sitting in the jungle somewhere & the srgent came up to me and another guy and handed us our knife.And said we ranout of the other knives we decided to give you these knives that the CIA uses. And those knives were the RANDALL MODEL 1 Knives. And the reason I know that is cause I found it in a magazine. when I thought it was all in my head. The way I figured it all out was by the Movie in1987 Ive had the memorys since I was very younge. My soul is 63 years old. The way I figure it. I TOLD YOU IT SOUNDED CRAZY! SO WHO AM I OR WHO WAS I ? IN 1968. PLEASE help me. This is very IMPORTANT to me. I know this is going to sound alittle crazy . But i was killed on hamburger hill . I remember it . I was the first guy on the hill in 1968.
