Subject: NEED YOUR HELP TO BRING CLOSURE

Fellas, I'm in need of your help, especially that of Jeff Northridge. Jeff, I've noticed that you have the uncanny knack of digging up all types of info and/or persons. Here's my problem. While at the last Blackhawk Reunioin (2/1 Cavalry) in Branson Mo. this summer, one of my guys "The Reverend" relayed a long kept story to us. One of his tank crew, David Chaney (KIA 31 Aug 70), had given him his prized Bowie Knife making Rev promise that if he did not make it out of Nam, that Rev would make sure that his family in Kentucky would get the Bowie. Well you can just imagine the shock when we heard this. Rev finally got comfortable enough to open up and relay this story. Now we all have the mission. Here is where you guys come in. I had been in touch with one of David's cousins, Ms Judy Chaney Bullock. Alas, in my old age, I've somehow misplaced/lost her phone number. I do however have a mailing address, but Ms. Bullock has yet to respond to my last snail mail. If you guys can use your Midas Touch, and dig up a phone number or email address, we would be forever be beholding to you (as if we don't already owe you guys enough for helping us get back together after thirty or more years). We all want to meet in Lexington Ky. at Dave's grave site and make the presentation to his family. By the way, David along with Sgt Edictor Rivera-Montez were the last two Troopers in our unit to be KIA before the colors were sent home in Oct of 1970. They were both on the same lead tank that bore the initial brunt of an RPG ambush in the Song Mao AO in II Corps. Judy's address is : Judy Bullock Po Bx 4028, Mt. Vernon, Kentucky, 40456. Hope you guys can help us Old Scout Doggies out. Feel free to email me directly at KAATUN@AOL.COM. Thanks much, Tony Dodson, SCOUTS OUT.
