Great News, #3 Son of Snake.

Now we can finally answer that question asked of Battle of
IA DRANG Hero BOB CRANDALL by a caller on National Tak Radio during the week of the Movie Release of "WE WERE SOLDIERS,"

...and by Mrs. JULIE MOORE herself of him durng our 2001 IA DRANG Alumni Dinner in Washington, D.C.,


"And now, BOB, when will we be seeing you receive your own Battle of IA DRANG Congressional Medal of Honor at the White House" ..?


GOD is indeed GOOD..?


Signed:.."ALOHA RONNIE" Guyer

-IA DRANG S-1 Personnel Clerk who took a just shot in the back S-2 Officer Capt. TOM METSKER off of BOB CRANDALL's Huey Helicopter, while ID'ing him, 3 air minutes out from IA DRANG's Landing Zone X-Ray on the 1st day of Battle.

Thanks for the ping, Ronnie. It's always good to hear GOOD NEWS about our fellow service men and women.

Helluva job!

Spot on Ronnie.

Other than it's "Bruce" and not "Bob"

In any case good to hear from you again and it was good to see you at the Ia Drang 40th Anniversary Reunion Dinner.

Surely Julie Moore will be missed when it comes time for the presentation. She was a woman of great honor and conviction who would have loved to have been there.
