Hello Ladies and Gentleman.

A Canadian here, looking to start a Vietnam War reenacting group in southern Ontario. But more importantly, looking for any information the Veterans can provide to make me more knowledgable, and make any soldier recreation more true to history.

It's hard to find contacts in the unit I'm looking to reenact under (173rd), but I'm willing to take virtually any information from any Vet.

Thanks for listening, I know these intro threads can be a pain to read sometimes.

No, actually we prefer all members to introduce themselves prior to jumping into the discussions, it helps to break the ice and know who you are "talking" to. You did the proper thing by introducing yourself.

I am suprised, especially given the amount of stories, groups and resources former members of the third herd have organised on the net. The best places to search are vietnam military site's that have guest books. Many people will sign them, leave their unit and contact information.

Have you tried:

Welcome! When's your birthday? I find it boring to look on peoples profiles, and hell, I'll remember it better if you tell me, and doesn't it just make you feel special to tell people when your birthday is? mine is 13 March by the way.

I feel special now
