Answer to Dave Lowmaster on uploading photos to the website: just request a photo album. I will set one up and issue you a username and p.ssword.

If we have pictures from this time period, how can we get them uploaded to the site?

Sorry for the website down time. We had to switch servers due to the original company going out of business. This economy is hitting everyone.

Someone recently asked me what my connection was to the Vietnam war (webmaster of this site). My name is Bob Ambler. My connection to the Vietnam war: lost 3 of my closest friends in the war. I was turned down from entering the military in 1969 due to medical reasons. Have set up websites over the years for my vietnam veteran friends. I wasn't able to be there is person, but I was and am there in spirit.

I managed to enjoy the best of both fights. Twelve of us mortar men were sent to a school yard in Hue during the Tet Offensive of 1968. After Hue we were reunited with our unit in Khe Sahn. Our unit had been attached to 3/26
and we were on 105's and 4.2's there.

Serviced with Charlie 1/5, from Sep 67 - Nov 68. One of the few to survivors the Battle of Hue. The photos were moving, particularly the tank and wounded, that was my squad, I placed them on the tank to get the out of harms way and returned for the other wounded and dead. Commander at the scene were lacking in experience, etc... although no one was to blame as we were not trained for urban warfare

Thank You very much for the pictures of Hue, which were definitely taken pre-Tet.
I was with Headquarters Regional Communications Group (RCG) from 67-69. I was in Hue for Tet 68 and it was NO fun. I fought along side the Marines during that siege. I then went down to Saigon to my unit just outside of Tan Son Nhut Air Base. I did two tours in Nam.
