| My name is Jim Stewart and I served in Vietnam from October of 1966 to October of 1968. I also worked there as a civilian for two years until July, 1970. I served with the 552nd, 300th, 560th, 527th , and"C"CO of the 716th MP BN. I left for Vietnam when I was 19, and came home just a few months shy of my 24th birthday. I met and served with a lot of fine men. I know a lot of us have wondered what happened to the buddies we served with. Hopefully this site will be read by some of the MP vets and put them in touch with the friends and soldiers that they served with. |
