I a the 1SG for E Troop, 5th US Cavalry. I understand this is a 3/5th Cav pure web page but, I am interested in the Regiments History of all periods so that, I can ensure that the Troopers of today show the proper respects to past veterans by wearing only authorized unit decorations. I have tried to contact the Regimental Historian before but to no avail. Any brothers in arms out there who can help point me in the right direction please, contact me at daniel.bumbaugh at us.army.mil thank you

Thanks for the reply, Tim and Ed. No, I've not seen Schoen or anyone else since returning from VN . . . except for D Troop crew chief Larry Fitzgerald, who came and stayed some days with me in '71. More names are coming back to me, like Dan Drozen, Jim Bard, others. I have some photos to post, including a great one of Schoen, as soon as I figure out how to do it.

Charles Crews,
Was also in B Trp '66-67. Have you had any contact with Larry Schoen? How about Gerald Blackmun or Vince Becerill? Welcome to the forum. Hope you find someone you know on here.

Had friends in D Troop, notably Dan Brophy, Bruce Brogoitti, Don Hawkins (all three KIA), Larry Fitzgerald, Doug "Barney" Fife, Charlie Palacios. Some of us went to the same high school in CA. Great to see all of you guys here. Welcome home.
