After callinfg in air strikes the hill was retaken by Mike Force(B-55 and B-20). Most of the fighting was over by 26 Aug althought action continued in the area through September.

[> [> Subject: Re: 1968 September Author: Don Wardlow [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 14:40:00 04/28/00 Fri I never went to VietNam, but I have vivid memories of September 15, 1968. I was in the Army and had just completed AIF at Ft. Polk, La. Sunday morning I was in my barracks when the CQ runner came and knocked on my door. He broke the news to me of my brother PFC James D. Wardlow, USMC, being killed in VietNam on Friday the 13th of Sept. I always thought and always will think that no matter how bitter so many were of the VietNam war that my brother died a noble death and I am proud of him because he was doing what he had always wanted to do and that was be a Marine.

June 24 2002 Jeff Loomis found one of my many sights in reguards to my brother in law Cal he contacted us and had Jim Daugherty contact us also We praise the Lord for this as we as a family feel not only have we got to know Cal but we have extended our family also today on June 24 Jim Lockwood contacted me and that is another blessing. Truly as long as the Lord lets me breath I will honor Calvin in any way that I can. Walk with the Lord let him lead you in all aspects of your life as the reward is the truth that you will be united with those lost on earth in the mansions of Heaven and know your Loved. Cheri
