ORIGINAL: stuka75 Thanks for the replies. I'd place the unit about 71,29. Base camp known as Hawk Hill, or Hill 29. 1/1 was full armored cavalry regiment, With respect, I think 1/1 Cav was a squadron (1/1 = 1st Squadron, 1st Cavalry Regiment), not a complete armored cavalry regiment. The only U.S. ACR in RVN (operating as a unitary, complete regiment) was the 11th. Most of the cavalry regiments were broken up during World War II, and the "Pentomic" and "Combat Arms Regimental System" re-orgs did not reunite them, apart from a handful like the 2d, 3d, 6th, 11th, and 14th which all saw service as complete regiments in the Cold War (and Vietnam in the case of the 11th). stuka75, my thanks for your service in RVN. Cheers
