USMC (Ret.).

My brother Pvt Gary Lawyer was Hotel Co 1st platoon I think, as a radioman. He survived Dai Do but wounded badly 7-21-68 near Khe Sanh. He retired CWO4 in ‘89. He died in ‘95. Anyone on here know him.

Comment on Cliffs Notes: Vietnam War by Bruce Obermeyer /cliffs-notes-vietnam-war/#comment-10510 Sun, 21 Apr 2024 19:07:02 +0000 /?p=6933#comment-10510 In reply to Art Cole.

Art, I just found out about your article from an email I got today from Charlie Hale and Ed Diehl. I flew with all of the guys on Baron 52 prior to their shootdown on February 5, 1973.

Here is a link to my modest tribute site to our lost comrades and their survivors.

It is dedicated to the members, family, friends, and loved ones of the 360th, 361st, and 362nd Tactical Electronic Warfare Squadrons and to the members, family, friends, and loved ones of the 6994th Security Squadron and all the others who were connected with the EC-47 aircraft during the Vietnam War. The poem was written as a tribute to those we lost and a chronicle of how my wife and I spent that year. This site was created as a promise kept to those we lost that they never be forgotten.

Hand Salute,
Captain, USAFR
360th, 361st, and 362nd TEWS, DaNang, NKP, and Ubon
1972-1973

Hi Stephen, thanks for letting us know a little about your dad. In the Masters of the Air, he seems to have been a capable flyer with tough side to him. Can you tell us a little more of his post-war life? Thanks again.
