| 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 served with the finest of men. This site is for you. |
