Yesterday I was picking up medical supplies in St.Charles Va. and I had my Vietnam Veteran Hat on and the nurse told me her dad was a Viet vet so talking with her her dad was in Bco 589th Eng. in 70/71. I told her that I was in Aco 589th at the same time. His name was Ronnie Lawson if any of y'all recognize his name. She told me that he passed away in 2020 during the covid garbage from blacklung and agent orange complications. She was sad because they wouldn't let but 10 people come for the service. Her and husband and her sister and husband and 5 kids between them plus Ronnie came from a large family which couldn't attend. She said he got a flag and that was it, no 21 gun salute or taps.These are her words.(my dad served his country and couldn't get a proper funeral but the country idolized the criminal Floyd and it really hurt. She said i'm not a prejudice person but it still hurts.) We talked for a while longer but I had to go but I see her everyday cause that's one of my stops on my route.If any of y'all remember Ron let me know and i'll pass it on to her. thanks Brothers and welcome home!

I have unfortunately came across the passing of 4 more of our 589th Brothers and added them to the Latest News Page article "Another Good Soldier Died Today"
They are: LTC Al Rosin-HHC Company Gerald K. Blair-D Company Robert L. Burkett-A Company and Kelly Adovnik-C Company I also suspect we have lost Lynn Robinson A Company but can't find anything to support it. May they rest in peace. |

We made a decision to suspend sales of our PX items on our website and documented the reasons on our Latest News page.
We only sell our PX items at our reunions but if you have a special need and we have them in stock then we might possibly make an exception. Scroll to the bottom of any page and you will see a "Contact Us" link. Click it and submit your question and someone will get back to you soon. Thank you |
