NOTES FROM TEX WANDKE

Dear Hoa Pham, I have not had the pleasure to meet you. As Christmas is fast approaching I just thought that I would write you and thank you an all of the other Vietnames who became my friends. I served three tours of duty in Vietnam. I was there 1965-1966 (Vietnames Rangers Biet Dong Quang 43), I returned in 1968-1969 (I commanded two companies and served with the LRRP's)and my last tour was with the Ranger High Command 1972-1973). I was the last Ranger Advisor Ordered out of Vietnam. I felt then as I feel now that we were fighting Communism and when we left we let you, your friends and family down. Please accept my gratitued for the friendship that was extended to me when I was in Vietnam. I served with some outstanding soldiers. I wish you your family and friends a Very Marry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Best Regards, Richard D. "Tex" Wandke, BDQ >From: Hoa Pham <avvavietnam@yahoo.com>

" Jenie Ly "My byline is J. Stryker Meyer. I'm the military affairs reporter for the North County Times based in Oceanside, Ca. Unlike most military affairs reporters, I had 2 tours of duty in Nam. I'd like to write some sort of an adv. about your event aboard Camp Pendleton on April 30th. My numbers are: Work: 760-728-5511. Pager: 760-781-6445. This is my home email address. Plez contact me there over the weekend. My work email address is: meyer@nctimes.com.

In recent years i've searched unsuccessfully for any Vietnamese who fought side by side with SF, of Vietnamese helicopter pilots from the VNAF, specifically the 219th squadron based in Da Nang which flew missions deep into Laos, Cambodia, the DMZ and N. Vietnam. If your organization has any links to those communities, which you can share with me, I'd be grateful for the contacts. I'm just getting started as the military affairs reporter, after having been an editor for 6 years. Hence, I'm just getting started at making contacts in S. Cal. Thanks for your time. Look forward to meeting your troops/associates on Apr. 30th" Respectfully,"

J. Stryker "tilt" Meyer
