Swampfox

I received an e-mail yesterday from Homer R. Steedly Jr. He was an LT. platoon leader type with B/1/8. He was one of the last guys pulled out of Task Force Alpha on March 30, 1969. He has started a web-site which outlines his tour and also a very good account of Task Force Alpha from March 25th till March 30th. It makes for some interesting reading which includes names of his platoon memebers and the final minutes before they were extracted.

This was the type of thing which I hoped for while writting my book. I have received several e-mails from guys that were on the ground who have started to make public what happened to them during this operation. I still have many questions about what was happening on the ground.

Check it out and let Homer know he is not alone.
The site is www.swampfox.info. Swampfox was his call sign.
