[Vhfcn-l] Old boat person.

[Richard Lewis]

I had lunch with a group of vets from all services with the fact we were all in Vietnam back in the day.  We had the lunch in the Cafeteria of one of the places you get help as needed, (Assisted Living I just remembered.  One of our group that lives there set it up.  During lunch several people stopped at our table to thank us for our service.  One mentioned he had been in 1st Cav in 65.  I asked him what unit he had served with, he became very quiet and you could tell he was not sure, but then he said 2  then a long pause then another 2 and then shortly an 8 Then real fast and sort of unsure he said Assault support helicopter  real fast then all at once 228th ASH. I then asked what company, he thought a while and said he could not remember but he remembered being at Fort Eustice VA
 and in 11th something then taking the Boxer to Nam in 65. He was thrilled when I told him I had been 228th.  We are going to meet again Tuesday and I am taking some pictures for him to look at.

His name is Bill Cavenaugh (not sure I spelled it right,  Ring any Bells.  I would like to tell him he is remembered if possible.
