Don: I could very well be mistaken because the passage of time has eroded my menmory, but my recollection is that all mail went to Bearcat (later Dong Tam)and was forwarded to us as we moved around I Corps. According to various Operation Reports for 1968 (which I think I got from this alumni web site) the 3/5th headquarters APO (which I believe would have been our APO, was 96370.

While we were at Wonder Beach and then Camp Evans the mail came in to Bearcat and later to Meto (9th Div HQ) and was sorted, put on a plan and flow to PhuBi where it was then picked up by a Squadorn Mail duce and 1/2 and driven to Evans. I processed through Bearcat and did the week in the rubber plantation school and then flew to PhuBi where I road the mail truck from PhuBi to wonder Beach for eventual assignement to B Troop. This was the mail situation the from summer 68 to at least Feb or so of 69. The APO we used was the 9th Div APO down south and that caused the horrible delay in mail delivery which was a major * * * item. At least that's how I recall it. I thought it was 96375 but I am not sure.
