I was at Nha Trang as an AP (not k-9) during 65-66. The name Paul Hodges seems to ring a bell. I was good friends with a dog handler while there, but can not remember his name after 40+ years. If you care to forward a photo of him during his time in Vietnam, something might click.

Cheryl, I did not know your father. I was stationed at Cam Ranh about 40 clicks south of Na Trang but I was a dog handler assigned to the 12th k9 section 66-67. Please accept my condolences on the loss of your father and our ranks are weaker by one. A dog handler buddy I served with passed away Dec 08 of lung cancer. He to was exposed to agent orange as was I. Your dad and I did not know each other but we shared many of the same ailments. Again I'm sorry for your loss. Henry Nieto >Hi,
