Served at FSB Crockett - where we set up the same
AP in the same location for over a week and almost
got blown to the high heavens by a very large
homemade VC "claymore type" booby trap. Everyone
in the platoon was edgy about going to the same
place night after night but...orders were orders.
Fortunately for many of us it was not wired
properly and failed to detonate. Also helped build
and served at FSB Reed. Was the only one at the
base that had a Christmas tree, sent by my
girlfriend (now wife), on our bunker in 1968. It
was nice that they gave us Christmas off (official
cease fire on both sides we were told). I was
fortunate (won the lottery) enough to see Bob
Hope's Christmas Show at Cu Chi. I remember the
"eagle flights" from Reed quite well...the
"Hornets" were the best. If anyone remembers me
please call or e-mail. Lastly, I am requesting to
be added to the Delta Company Roll Call page.
Thank you for providing the opportunity to reunite
long lost Wolfhounds with their friends of m

To all the men of the 1/27 & 2/27 who went from Hawaii with us to Cu Chi both alive and those who have fallen my most profound respect and compassion for one of the most courageous group of men to have ever served. We of the original 1/5th Mech know what
re brothers of the "HOUNDS" went thru back in 1966 our hats off to you for all the sacrafices and horror the "HOUNDS" went thru. I was there, I saw many of you, many rode on our tracks, many were known to us as good friends back
in Hawaii, you guys had balls and nerves of steel you the men of the hounds in 1966 are the finest. This grunt from the 1/5th remembers fighting alongside of the "HOUNDS" in many battles. I get choked up when I think of how many of you died that April of
6 in the mass attack in the trench/bunker complex. Of operation Maikiki when the 1/27, 2/27 and the 1/5 got hammered and we hammered them. I remember how burnt out and exhausted the "HOUNDS" were when at times they climbed on our tracks to get out of the
ell they just fought with the courage and strength that only the "HOUNDS" were famous and honored for in the 25th Division. I lost many good friends from the Wolfhounds in 1966, your terribly missed brothers and for all those alive my deepest congratulati
ns and respect to some of the best soldiers in the US ARMY and the most courageous the men of the WOLFHOUNDS in 1966.

Your military ‘pension’ . . . Do you know?
1 - That approximately 300-600 no-fault divorces each month (involving career and veteran military members) cause those individuals financial hardships when they discover that they are NOT getting the retainer pay they were told they would be getting.
2 - It is not a ‘pension’ because it is not vested at anytime during your military career.
3 - It is not a bank account, IRA, annuity, or gift that can be divided or borrowed against during your active career service (or even when you are retired after 20 plus years of honorable service).
4 - It is not property because it can not be divided, nor have you ever paid any “property tax” during your active service career as if it were property, nor can you place it in your will, so that upon your death it can go to your next of kin. The govern
ent stops payments to you when you die.
5 - Only the no-fault court judge considers it as BOTH property and income and partitions it accordingly for Both deduction considerations. The property division CHOICE helps the no-fault judge assure that the spouse will not impact the county welfare sy
tem of the county in which they adjudicate divorces. It is called a Conflict of Interest!
6 - The IRS, DoD, Bankruptcy courts, State tax authorities (who elect to tax active military and veterans), and even the DFAS (that performs the automatic garnishments of the retainer pay as property as dictated by the court) considers the retainer pay as
ONLY income! http://www.dfas.mil/money/garnish/fs-qa.htm
7 - It is a condition whereby the military (pentagon) pays the retiree past the 20 plus year time-in-service date a reduced amount of funds under the condition that in an emergency (or when congress decides) you can be recalled to active duty. The age li
it is 62 (obvious such individuals would serve in a support function).
8 - The USFSPA Law (Section 1408, Title 10 USC established as PL 97-252 - 8 September 1982)
and DFAS action states that upon the completion of a civilian spouse (wife) acquiring ten years of marriage congruent to the military members ten years of active service that upon her completion of divorce action the DFAS will automatically reward that s
ouse each month with a percentage of the military member’s retainer pay for the remainder of life (payments stop only when the first of the two divorced parties dies).
9 - The military does not inform its troops of the problem the USFSPA presents to the veteran’s financial future. In fact recruiters, it is believed, deliberately go out of their way to NOT inform new recruits or that CBPO retention personnel do not prov
de like data to those considering career service.
10 - It is estimated that somewhere between 80,000 to 100,000 have been effected (but The DFAS - Defense Finance Accounting Service) will not provide the total number effected in spite of the fact that they accomplish the garnishments!
11 - The amount of garnishment is determined by a formula that is figured on the military wage earned at retirement NOT the wage rate at the time of divorce (divorce at ten years of his military service - ie, Captain, and acquire garnishment funds 10 (mo
e) years later at his retirement rank of Colonel).
12 - Congress has been indifferent to any consideration for changing the USFSPA law since 1982 yet it is content to increase incentives and bonuses to entice good people into a false career benefits promise. See this congressional letter http://pages.map.
om/gordont/ltr8pay-is-income.htm
13 - The no-fault court will not allow any recourse to wrong doing by the spouse. All it takes is a statement of “irreconcilable differences” on her part and the military members pays for life.
14 - The maximum DFAS will garnish is 65% of your military retainer pay. You will then receive the 35% remaining yet will still be obligated to your oath of service to return to duty should congress call . . about 4,000 were recalled for Desert Storm!
15 - Most veterans (who know about the USFSPA) no longer represent the military as the ‘unseen recruiter force’ they once were, but instead, are shamed by the lies of governmental authorities, the disrespect of courts toward those who honorably served for
20 years, and disgusted by the lackadaisical attitude and unappreciative demonstration of the civilian society they protected.
Comments welcome. For more information dial up “USFSPA” into any search engine and/or see the web at http://www.seacoast.com/~gordont/ . Join us in our fight to right this wrong.
