Almost too much to bear upon reading and having very mixed feelings. I encountered DePuy when he was TRADOC commander and heard the stories from VietNam from older heads. I have only total respect for you and the men whose actions you recount here. This is the main thing we have to hang our heads in shame about for VN - leaving men such as your comrade behind. I wish his son the best of luck in his recovery mission.
I’m especially incensed, in more ways than one, with the way the MOH upgrade packet is being handled.

Powerful story. I wonder if we, as a nation deserve the sacrifice of such men.
They waited for help that was promised but not delivered. Like Benghazi.
The basest form of betrayal.
