Articles Brought Back Memories

Dear Editor,

I would like to express my appreciation to the Democrat News for the article “While Woodstock Rocked, GIs Died”, which was printed in your August 12 edition. Since this issue, Robert Vanderbrugen has put me in contact with a veteran of the Americal Division. We visited for some time on the phone. He told me of being wounded in the battle of Hiep Duc, but he had lost all track of time in the battle and never knew the date he had been wounded until he read the article in the Democrat News. He said would keep that article forever. Once again, you have my gratitude.

Eddie Sikes
