Comments: Looking into my father's past, Sgt Mike "Ske" Radjavitch. His memory isn't the best but I found he belonged to A Troop 3rd/5th around 69 - early 70's. He thinks 2nd platoon. Service records show active 68 to 71.
Comments: I was the Operations NCO for B CO 86TH cbt Engr Bn LCT during this operation. The 9th Division being the security and task unit, this complex was discovered by an LCT dozer. The operator was with the 86th LCT, the shotgun for the operator riding on the dozer with him was a B co 86th Engr member. No matter who gets the credit, a job well done.
Comments: My good friend James Davis was in B Troop in 1968. He has expressed wishes to contact members of his unit. Any help in this endeavor would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You

Comments: I was in Vietnam from Christmas Eve 1967 until December of 1968. Served with the 3rd of the 5th D Troop Ninth Division. I was trying to find a patch for 3rd of the 5th. And what D troop turned into. From your history I see that we became 1st of the 17th. And we are probably called the * * * cav because we really were shuffled around and didn’t belong anywhere very long. Thanks for the history it helped me.
