PHOTOS PROVIDED BY CHUCK ROSE
Chuck Rose and Phil Byron (holding the Company pet dog). Phil is reported to be in Massachusetts somewhere, but has not been located. Chuck finished his tour with D Company, went to OCS, then returned to Vietnam with the 4th Infantry Division as a Company Commander. There he patrolled the same AO as he did before with the 1st Cav. He was severely wounded and spent a year in the hospital in the states.
Here's another good picture of Chuck that he sent home to his girlfriend (now wife). You can see Hon Cong mountain in the back ground, framed by the squad tents we lived in on the rare occasions that we were in base camp.
Chuck Rose and Sgt Lute with the company pet monkey on his back. The pet dog is following along. SGT Harry Lute was KIA leading a squad when we engaged in an intense fire fight with a numerically superior force. He was a hard charger and great squad leader. Most who have been interviewed regarded him as a mentor and think of him often.
