RICHARD AVALOS

 

All pictures were taken between July 1968 and July 1969


#8 - We used to call "Country" - RTO for Platoon and I think later Company RTO
#11 Same Guy - Eagle Beach, Getting ready to go back to war.
#12 John Gutierrez
#15 John Gutierrez
#16 SFC James Kyzer and Richard Avalos<br>
#17 On the left I believe is a Lucero (don't know first name). I can't remember the name of the other guy. I believe this was my going away party inside Barber Shop at Camp Sally.
#18 Again Lucero
#19 The other Lucero (I believe we had 2 in the Company - not related). This guy was so outstanding the first few weeks after he arrived that he got sent to the rear (Camp Sally) to become the Battalion Barber.
#20 ? I know him but I can't name.
#23 I believe the guy taking the picture was SFC Kyzer?
#24 The other Lucero before he got sent to the rear.
#26 A friendly that humped with us for what reason I never knew and myself.
#27 I believe the guy standing is Henry Kapheim (Doc) - the others ?
#28 I believe this was Perez - last time I saw him was at Ft Bragg on his way out of the Army - I don't know the other guy.
#29 ? I believe he was from Hawaii</p>

EAGLE BEACH

 

Orderly Room, Eagle Beach. Eagle Beach was established on the South China Sea six miles east of Hue in May of 1969 for in country Rest & Relaxation (R&R). A Company was sent to Eagle Beach to recuperate for several days after suffering major casualties due to contact with the the North Vietnamese off Firebase Veghel.

 

 

But even on R&R, you can't completely escape the realities of war. The perimeter around Eagle Beach was guarded including the beach.

Firebase Airborne - taken by Dean Seematter (C, 2/319 FA) in mid August 1969 (the image is washed out... trying to get another)
Firebase Airborne - Ashau - date of pix unknown.  The left side (not the top-left) of the hill is the 'knoll'. You can see the little gully between the knoll and the firebase. The view was taken from the northeast looking southwest.
