Welcome...
This little bit of cyberspace is dedicated to all individuals who served in Viet Nam and particularly those who served with the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne). My goal is to document my Viet Nam service with the 5th Special Forces Group (SFG) so that my children may better understand some of the factors that shaped my life and, subsequently, their life. My hope is that this site will also provide others with a glimpse of what Viet Nam service was like as a Green Beret A-Team member. This is why I refer to these pages as an insight into 'the Special Forces Viet Nam experience'.

I have tried to be historically accurate with the information I presented here. What does this mean? It means that I have tried not to embellish the incidents and information recalled here. The facts and stories contained in the web pages are as accurate as my information and memory will allow. If you are aware of any inaccuracies, please let me know so that I may correct them.
Regarding this web site...
This web site now spans five different 'personal' web spaces. If you notice a different URL, it hopefully is part of these linked sites. I have grouped the information around each site's theme. The A-103 site, for example, has information about Team A-103 but not about Detachment C-1 (Da Nang).
| My web sites and their associated themes are: | |
| http://home.sprintmail.com/~blueis | General information about the Republic of Viet Nam (RVN) [This site!] |
| http://home.earthlink.net/~sfrvn | Special Forces in RVN: Command structure, camp locations, members |
| http://home.earthlink.net/~a1035thsfg | Team A-103 Gia Vuc: Members, camp life, and 'a trip to the boonies' |

For me, the unofficial anthem of the Viet Nam war
