Sure hated to hear about Tommy (aka Mississippi).
We served in Vietnam together in the same Infantry Platoon. Our Unit was Lonely Platoon, Bravo Company, 5/46th Battalion, 198th Light Infantry Brigade, Americal Division, Republic of Vietnam. I will share this with about 28 guys that served with Tommy that we have contact with.
