"What's the significance of "FOB Kalsu"? That's a familiar name to some of us."

well, I'll be d-mned.
Some good soul(s) remembered. (see end of 1st paragraph)
Too bad the writers at Sports Illustrated and some d-mned Yankees (said with
much love by VOA) are the best promoters of Kalsu...the only pro athlete killed in
the Vietnam War.
Probably the initial group posted to the area:105th Military Police Company
(Buffalo, New York)

If/When I get the time, I'm gonna' "drill down" Yahoo and find out more about
the 105th Military Police Company.
I get the feeling that some Okies need to send somebody in Buffaloe, NY a bit of thanks.
