Served with the 725th maintenance battalion, E company from Sept. 1968 into July 1969. During the last few months, I was crew chief for one of the two company ships, the H model Huey, tail numbered "Greentape 468".

I Went back to the world Feb 14th 1969 and missed this attack on Cu Chi. I was a photographer with the 125th Sig Bn Co C. A few of my buds tracked me down but I was in a bad frame of minde at the time. Would like a second chance if any of you see this. Would also like to hear from any one in the photo div.

It has been a long time since 1969 Tet and though I can remeber that night my memory has failed me in other areas. I was with an artillery unit there on Cu Chi during this time period, unfortunately I am unable to remember the division number of the unit. 211th 221 or something on that order. Any help putting my mind back in order would be appreciated. Thank you.

I was with the 25th MI detachment at CU Chi. I remember that night well. We were all in the bunker behind our hooch before half of us were awake. After sitting there listening to the explosions around us , the sound of the siren changed and one of the guys who had been there more than a month told us to get dressed and report to the area around the headquarters building . We stood in a bunker with our M-16s on top of beer cans for the rest of the night waiting for the ground attack which Thank God never came. My thoughts and prayers are with those who sacrificed their lives or who came home either physically or mentally less than whole. I made some great buddies there and think of them often.

125th Sig Bn…Com Ctr…Went so fast. Like another planet in the solar system. Don't remember…or maybe don't want to remember. There were those who gave the ultimate. All I gave was my time. Lucky. Miss the guys who just 'disappeared' after a firefight. No one told us anything. Just had to grieve on our own.
