To my home page, I am Floyd Richards, served with the 46th PIO Det. Our mission was to provide the Brigade with the Fire Base 173 Newspaper, Sky Soldier Magazine and Yearbook. We covered the Events and Combat Actions in the field by the Brigade for publication. In this Website are a collection of articles and photographs taken by myself and members of my unit from 30 years back that I hope you find interesting. | |

I saw nothing but kids in those pictures
They all grew up real quick didn't they,
Those who lived to come home
Like our used body parts so too are souls in war
Memories pass away like monsoon raindrops
Those of you who copied our history in war,
Know us all best in black and white,
While God knows us best in living color
My gift of the past to you, a Thank You
For not throwing away our history
To put it out there for everyone to know
Pictures say more then words
When they talk to you in thought
Gary Vanschoiack, AKA PointClerk,Co B, 3/503D Infantry 67-68, 173D Support 68-69
I wish to thank you for your effort to remind us all of our past
We were not welcomed then when we got home,
I think the generations someday will know that hell we lived in

I would be remiss if I didn't include a personal thanks to Gary "Sgt Koz" Kozdron for his help with this site. Without him these photo's would still be in a box in my closet.................. Thanks Gary |
