BillyMac Posted December 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 MAC,My Dad was in Vietnam the same time frame you were. Any chance you knew anyone in the 554th Engineer Battalion?Glad to have you here!Wayne No Wayne...The squadron that I was attached to, (Attack Squadron-56),flew from two carriers off the S. Vietnam coast and to the Marine Air Base in Da Nang. I was a plane captain/jet engine mechanic in the Navy. After 4yrs in the Navy (1970), I joined the Army Nat'l Guard and retired a platoon sgt (E-7) in 1999. It's unlikely that I knew anyone from that battalion.MAC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
