- 557th (LE) Co. "Earth Eaters" Support we shall -- Rusty (GOOFY) Gutendorf, 12:43:13 07/31/99 Sat
I know I've been slow getting on line, but since the 8 track tape technology folded, I didn't think computers stood a chance. Anyway, it's good to see that there are so many interested Viet Nam vet Engineers out there. I've been signing every guestbook & bullitin board I come across in hopes of finding others of the 557th (LE) Co. I was in the 2nd platoon during '69, '70 & '71. Most of the time we provided "equipment" support to the 31st Engineer Bn. To any of the other veterans, if any of this sounds familiar to the point that you may beable to provide a contact or other information, please send an e-mail. PAUL, thanks for the leads ! Hope the years have been good to you and yours. Take care, and have a great summer. Rusty

We called ourselves the flyin 513th and our claim to fame was being able to spread a load of dirt so thin that the grader operators went back to sleep when they saw us coming and their NCO's threw rocks at us when they saw us going!
I was there from June 68-69 Hauled dirt from Doc To to DA Lat and hit every chuck hole I could find!

Welcome Home Vets.
I'm on mission seeking information of my dad's service in Vietnam. He served with the 444th from 66-68 at Pleiku and An Khe. Up til now, I've found no former soldiers of the 444th, so I've been checking with other units I know were in the same areas. These would include "B" co 84th, 511th eng co., 630th eng co., and the 937th eng group. Dad's name was SPC5 Jimmy Lang and he served as an asphalt equipment operator. He started at Ft Leonard Wood and rotated back through Ft Riley. He died in 1989 from Agent Orange related lymphoma. Anybody who remembers the 444th would be of interest to me as I seek to get a fuller picture of his tours in Vietnam. Thanks.

My name is Jim Churchwell, I was with the 444th Eng Det at An Khe from 12/66 to 12/67. I was part of the original group that moved the concrete batch plant from Qui Nhon to An Khe. We set up the batch plant and poured the original concrete runway so C130's could land at An Khe. I don't remember much else about that experience, in fact, the only name I can remember is Sgt O'Brian. I think the only reason I remember him is because I thought it odd, a Mexican with an Irish name.:) Anyway, I was thrilled to come across this website. I thought that when I left Vietnam, I didn't want to remember anything about it. Now that I am in my senior years, I'm wishing I had kept in touch. Maybe I can through this message board.

Anyone remember 1st Lt. Kjelson. I was his jeep driver in Nam. We both started out at Fort Ord, CA. The army loaded us up on the "Leaking Leena" or was that the Eltinge? I hope they made razor blades out of that wreck after the trip.
Anyway.....if anyone has any information on Lt. Kjelson let me know.

- Company C Action Report 31 October 1965 -- Daniel Hill, 01:53:38 05/31/09 Sun
Looking for information regarding Company C on or about 31 October 1965 where my late father was wounded in action with Charlie. Story that I received was that his company was just inland from the beach; Charlie came up from the beach, searching for a CP. His company was between the two and as a result, from what I've been told, Charlie "waltzed" through the company, annilhating 2/3 of the company. A patrol found my father 2-3 days later suffering from shock. He was subsequently transferred back to Fort Sam Houston and eventually retired in 1968. From the records that I have of his service record, it shows that he was attached to the 92nd Engineer Battalion and apparently either was transferred to the 864th. I need to know the true story of the incident for our family military history.

I just brought this to the attention of my DD-214 did not when I received a Purple Heart on the field in the 90th replacement in Saigon,Viet Nam which was a Replacement Center on the Ton Son Nut when they bomb the center at 12:10 A.M. when I got hit in the latrine. The headquarters of the 90th replacements took to long to record this error in Medical or the 201 file,and incorrect evaluation at the 3rd field hospital,in Saigon that I had to write to Army records in St Louis,MO and when I got the records and Generals Orders of the men who where with me that also got twelve Purple Hearts there at the 90th Replacement Center. I did not received these orders from the records center. I received from Philadelphia,PA,Support Center after one year. I was reviewing the E-Mail in the 84th Construction in the computer. Also,I remember a Willian Sanders who served in Qui Nhon,Viet Nam the same year he arrived there and I hope I'am not wrong. My home address is P.O. Box 83822 San Diego,California,zip- 92138,today I have 19 years and seven months cleaned and I have got in touch with much distortion of my past with Post Traumatic Stress that was not address at the 3rd field hospital because my emotional illness then was very much out of control that my marriage almost turn into murder so I left voluntarily because after I got home from Viet Nam I knew I was'nt myself and this is when after eleven years of married life it was not working after Viet Nam. Today I do alot of work for Veterans with their claims,and I do alot of work for elders,and errands.
I wish all you men who served in the 84 Engineers the best of health and a good life,a friend always Gilbert Roland Gonzales served in Qui Nhon,Viet Nam 1965-1966,wounded on April 13,1966 at 90th replacement Center.Ton Son Nut,Saigon,Viet Nam, Phone Number 1-619-297-3154 give a call if you knew me.

Its been 40 years since the '68 Tet offensive !!
VC attacked the 84th compound the night of Feb 3rd.
Sp4 Daniel Pena was killed in post#3 when VC blew up his guard post and entered the compound spraying the barracks and hootches. C Co cook David Pippin was fatally wounded with a satchel charge and died a few weeks later. The cooks tent was near post#3 perimeter. I was up the hill in post#4 shitting a brick. The rumor going around was that Pena saw movement and requested permission to fire, but the OD never gave the OK. I recall the OD was a blond haired 2nd Lt from C Co.
