Thanks again Perry, I have been wishing to hear from the guys for 40 years and you made it all happen. I was an equipment operator in A Company from April '67 until January '68. I was with the group that started the 589th in Ft Hood and went over on the boat in April. I have already heard from a number of the guys and it is really great to talk to them and get caught up

Great site, I served with the 84th Engineers and had a short stint with the 589th. I was in country 1970-71. I don't remember to much about my time in country, it all seems so long ago. Welcome Home

For SGT Fletcher Sapp: Fletcher: I still have copies of the "Mountain Mover News" for which you were my "Editor-in-Chief." You did a great job of putting it together every two weeks whileI was the BN CO. I was able to give Perry a list of members of the 589th that you included in each issue you prep

Rich: Perry is doing a great job with this web site. He has been trying to locate Al Carlisle, but has had no luck. Also I don't see Mike Morrish's name listed. Hope all is well with you and Barb.
