My cousin was in this unit but was killed by friendly fire in Dec. 1969, before your uncle was there. I have the name of his platoon leader if it helps you:
Lt. John W. Thornton.
Thornton actually came out of the woodwork about 10 yrs ago sending a letter w/ pictures of my cousin to my aunt&uncle who have since passed away. My cousin was Staff Sgt H.E. Williams, Jr. (Gene) so if you ever hear anything about him or "what really happened" or if you find a way to contact Thornton, please let me know.
Thanks and good luck.
