KILO 411 HILL 65 SEPT '66-OCT '67

Comments: Anyone remember the bulldozer operator that dug all the gun pits when we dug in in April 1966? That was me. Looking for people who might remember me. I was the one who brought more dirt to fill sand bags. I fell off the back of the truck when unloading ammo. I broke my leg when they called fire mission and everyone responded; Someone slipped off clutch and the 55 round fell on my ankle and broke it in the commotion. I remember our mess hall being blown up. Please write and share your memories here or otherwise. Does anyone remember how many how many operations we had and confirmed stats? If you made the move from Chu Lai to Da Nang in March '67 write or better yet, call me since I'm not good on email.

Anybody remember the crazy Christmas '66 we were all drunk as hell with a beer can Christmas tree? I have the photos I'll try to get someone to help me post.

He would like me to help him find out what happened on Hill 65 after he was sent away in January 1968. If there is any information you would like to share, please feel free to email me. If you have kept in contact with any of the soldiers from KILO, it would be great to be able to pass that on.

My grandpa - please help

Comments: My grandpa PFC Louis Mediano died this past November 24, 2005 and I regretfully did not get a chance to ask him about his experience as a marine in the Korean War. Currently I am obtaining my Masters Degree and am writing a paper on Veteran's experiences to further my peer's understanding of what servicemen and women go through. Unfortunately, my grandpa is not around to ask him questions about his Korean War experience and I was wondering if anyone knew him that would be willing to answer a few questions. I'd really appreciate it and I think so would your fellow servicemen PFC Louis Mediano. Rest in Peace Grandpa!
