Being born in 1970, I was too young to know anything about the Vietnam War. By the time I was in high school the Vietnam War was somewhat of a quick history lesson to me rather than a recent war that left so many dead and so many others scarred either physically or mentally for life.      When asked to help do this webpage I figured it would be pretty easy. First off,  I  am a big History fan and have read extensively into World War II. I don’t like war, yet there is something fascinating about it and it was that fascination that stirred my curiosity and got me reading years ago. So when it came to doing a web-page concerning the Vietnam War,  I figured I knew enough  to do this page.  I’ve read a lot of the books and of course seen all the movies. I wouldn’t be surprised if I’ve seen Platoon a hundred times, so again when it came to doing a web-page I figured “no problem”.      I quickly found out I was wrong. I’m not doing a web-page on the Vietnam War,  rather a webpage on and for the men who actually fought that war. I thought I knew a lot about it, I realized I knew books and film but nothing more. I am humbled by the sacrifice, courage and bravery of these men.  I have dedicated both my time and research to this page so that I might give back just a bit of what was given to me. Although I hardly know any of the men in Bravo Company 3rd Battalion 22 Infantry,  I want to personally thank each and every one of you for both you sacrifices and service.       I also want to add a special thanks to Richard Ward who has been nice enough to share his pictures, stories and friendships with me.  He has spent timeless hours telling me about the B-3/22 and without him none of this would have came to be. I believe it would be safe to call him my friend. So for my friend and the rest of the B-3/22 I dedicate this site to you. May you always know that nothing you’ve ever done has been in vain and all you’ve done is appreciated.  ~ Thanks
