| Comment: | Thanks, this is the first site that I've seen that mentions the 52nd sec.det. I was at camp Holloway from feb. 1970 to march 1971 in the mortar plt. and took my turn pulling duty at o.p.26. I served with a great bunch of guys and that's where I got the nick name "Charlie" pinned on me by Sgt. Homero Vasquez. I miss those days and the men I served with. | |

| Comment: | Very nice site and extremely well done! I wish we had a yearbook during my service with the 57th. I was one of the originals from Ft. Bragg in 67'. I was transferred into the 57th from the 82nd Airborne Div., when the 57th was being put together. I deployed to Vietnam with the advanced party. Served as a gunner on both slicks and gunships. After being wounded, I was assigned POL,RTO in Operatiions, and finished up doing compound security in Kontum with elements of the 3/8, 4th Inf Div., that were sent to us from Camp Enari in Pleiku. Went home in Oct. 68. I am proud to have served with the brave men of the 57th. I wish all of you the best that life can offer. You've earned it! | |
