110607 Need Help: Served in Long Binh, Vietnam 10/69-12/70. Need to get in touch with a fellow MP who also served in A Co. 720 MP Battalion, Long Binh.. His first name is Tommy. He was a thin, red head who I remember as a real good kid. I believe he was reassigned with other MP’s to another location in Vietnam, not that long after I arrived in country. One day I had an accident and somehow managed to walk right into the pulled down antenna on our jeep. It struck me in the eye. Tommy drove me to the 24th Evacuation Hospital (I think) where I received medical attention. A patch was put on my eye and I was laid up for a week, back at the base in Long Binh. When the week was up I returned to duty, black eyed and bruised. To the best of my knowledge I never returned for any follow up treatment at the 24th. Luckily I took close up pictures after the patch came off because I don’t think anything was ever documented. As a 60 year old I am now being examined for nerve damage I believed was caused by the accident. Only Tommy can confirm what happened that day as well as duty rosters saying I was off duty due to injury. At the time of the injury I was a PFC. |

033109 Greetings to everyone. I need help with identifying an incident that occurred on Hwy 1A at the Dong Ni River Bridge.
