I first joined fox company 2/5 in May 1969 and was assigned to first platoon. I left fox in April of 1970. Now I am married and have two kids. A girl named Sheena that is going into 7th grade, and a son named Lance who is going into 5th grade. I am presently working as a safety plus security officer at Central New York Phychiactric Center which is located in Marcy, New York. I've held this position for about 24 years. I work the day shift and can be contacted at 315-736-8271(exstention 2101 or 2156).

31Apr03 I'm trying to locate Mike Robinson, Pamona, California,our radioman 1st platoon 69-70. Also Freeland (Mouse) Mathews 69-70. Smallest grunt in 1st platoon. It's been 33 years but feels like yesterday. They were tough soldiers. It sucks because they still may be out there. Mouse was from PA. Mike got the living shit kicked out of him our last night in Hong Kong. Fox Co. was patrolling the Arizona. Thanks Bud Canada for carrying me to the LZ and dropping me on my head with malaria maggot.

Vagnetti, John W.

I was artillery officer (D 2/11) assigned to F 2/5 as an Forward Observer from July 1969 to November 1969. The CO was Captain Ken Furr and the XO was Lt. Pete Korn. My best friend in the unit was Third Platoon Commander Lt. Mike Henghsen (? spelling)I was a former enlisted Marine 0311 and that helped keep me alive. Although I was an Artillery Officer, my assignment with Fox was the highlight of my 15 years in the Marine Corps. In fact, the normal assignment for a FO with a rifle company was usually about 6-8 weeks, if they lasted that long, but I tried to stay with Fox as long as I could and finally had to be given a direct order to leave the unit. I was replaced by Lt. John Herring. I retired from DIA in 1999 and currently work as a contractor with BAE Systems.

Vallone, Frank, KIA 9/11/68 (Rosann sister of Frank)

My name is Roseann Vallone Oliveri and my brother was Frank Vallone. He was a with the 2/5 when he was KIA inQuang Nam on 9-11-68. He arrived in Nam on 7-7-68. He was only there for about 2 months when he was killed. Im looking for anyone who might have known him and maybe has some pictures of him they can share. I dont know any of his friends names, so I dont have anything to go on at this point. Is there anyway I can post something on the 2/5 website so that any 2/5 men can see it? I would appreciate any help.

Thank You Roseann Vallone

received 12/4/00

Im almost positive that he was with foxtrot. I spoke to one Marine who was with him on the day he was killed. I believe his name was Gary "Chuck" Huband. I had just wanted to know that my brother didnt suffer, and Chuck was able to answer alot of questions for me. I would just like to hear from others that knew my brother also., though he wasn't there very long, only two months. Chris Brown had put me in touch with Dave Brown about 5 or 6 years ago and Dave found Chuck and had him call me. I e-mailed Chris again and he said I can write something about my brother and he would put it in the 2/5 newsletter, so that might help. I'll be calling Chris in a few days to talk to him about ***

Walker, Melvin

I was sent to Nam in Sept. of 1968 with less than six months left on my 4 yr. enlistment. The reason of course was picking up E-5 just two months prior and having a 0300 mos. As luck would have it I had a secondary of 0141 because I knew how to type. To make a long story short they offered me the Admin. Chief's position with fox company and I made it through.I can't remember my COs name but I do remember an incident in which he borrowed my 45 to make a trip to the field. The bird he took attempted a landing on unlevel ground and flipped down an embankment giving everybody onboard a pretty rough ride. When returned to the company he came in looking pretty banged up and said to me "I lost your damn gun".

I was with Fox Co. from April 70 until April 71. Served my entire tour with Bravo squad. Was wounded in Sept. and returned. Sadly I can't remember names but I can remember all the faces. We were at An Hoa and moved to lZ.Baldy at one time we were out at night if anyone can remember a lob bomb landed very close to our hole my ears rang severely that night and into the next day and haven't stopped yet. I think I was wounded in antenna valley before moving to Baldy. If anyone can remember that time span or anyone from that time I would enjoy making contact. I am married for 34 yrs, have 5 children and 9 grands, Also recently retired from civil service at Camp Lejeune. I can remember the bad times but also the good and this is deep in my mind and heart.

Waszkiewicz, Marc (Sgt. Ski) C.

I went to RVN as an artilleryman with HQ Battery 2-11 (supporting 5th Marines Regiment with fire support. During my first tour I observed, from the Command Bunker and large wall map, that Fox 2/5 seemed to get more than it's share of dirty, dangerous assignments. Obviously, from my vantage point, I could see they were the "go to team." I determined to extend my tour twice in a row because I felt I was not really a full-fledged Marine until I had served with a rifle company in combat. I choose Fox as the "go to company" as their Artillery Forward Observer and have never regretted it since! I served with Fox from September 1968 through May 1969, when I was shot and left for dead on the battlefield in front of Echo Battery, An Hoa base, repulsing a Sapper attack on my support battery. Today I live in the Seattle area and maintain contact with many of my blood brothers from that era. Semper Fi....

I graduated boot camp on the 4th of July, 1967, while Fox fought the Nong Song battle at the Coal Mines. Arrived in 'Nam Oct, 1967 and served with 2nd Bn, 11th Marines (artillery) supporting 5th Marines. In September, 1968 I extended to become the Artillery Forward Observer for Fox Co, 2/5 and re-extended yet again to continue doing that. Wounds received in combat on May 12, 1969, required my evac back stateside where I was finally medically discharged with permanent disability. Fox Company was and is the best darned Company in the Corps and, probably, in any branch of service in any military anywhere! Hoorah and Semper Fi. My 'Nam nickname was "Cpl Ski" and, later on, "Sgt. Ski." I have returned to Nam and loved the experience. The Vietnamese people > are great. I suggest you all get your hands on Battlelines, by Lt. Col. Dave Brown (my CO) and relive the days that helped shape who we are today!

I was the artillery forward observer (actual) as a Corporal, later as a Sgt. Most of my time was spent under Capt./Maj. Dave Brown. I was attached from 2/11 artillery and also served awhile with Echo Co. 2/5, but my heart and the majority of my field time was with Fox. Hoorrah. Updated 4Jul08
