2008
Thank you for visiting The Battle of Kontum. And please feel free to add a comment to the Guestbook.
We met on the plane and I had to take a look at the website. Amazing job! This is truly a powerful tool to help honor the fallen, comfort the grieving, and teach the uneducated. Thank you.

I was a Cagey/Elliot FAC at Kontum Oct 66 to Mar 67. I am so pleased to find this site. I was trying to find some familiar terrain on Google Earth when I found your site quite by accident. It is really great!

Great Website. We really upgraded weapon systems in 1972 didn't we. I served from 1969 -1970 not in Vietnam. We could have won it in 1972 I believe after all that time. Just too much political pressure. Johnson was such a looser.

I came across a comment by Larry Glass below. I am the current 572 MICO 1SG and would love to pick his brain or anyone who has knowledge of the 572 MI DET. I am looking for personal memoirs, photos, prior key leaders bios, or any relevant 572 history. Unfortunately the lineage was not properly preserved and I am trying to recreate memiors to adorn our walls. Please feel free to contact me with any info you can provide. Airborne

I flew with the 57th AHC(Gladiator 29) from Jun 71 - Jun 72. I was up the night the NVA first invaded and experienced the advanced waepons they introduced into the battlefield. I must say it changed how we flew!! Our FOB mission was also one that so little is know about and many brave men gave the ultimate sacrifice and received so little credit. But it was a mission that no one knew we were doing!! Cheers
