Good morning Jim Sheppard, I thought I would mention that the 1/50th Inf (no Mech) is part of the 198th Infantry Brigade (Training) at Ft Benning. If you haven't done so already perhaps your association could contact the Ft Benning people about connecting with them. I know that 198th Inf Bde (Vietnam) and 1/46 Inf Bn (Vietnam) have done this and apparently the ceremonies that have been held with the Vietnam vets of those units and the modern folks have gone quite well. I just thought I would make the suggestion but I'm sure you've already engaged in the effort. Again, best wishes. Dietmar Schneider-Hector formerly of 2d Bn (M) 50th Inf 2d Armorerd Division and 1st Bn 6th Inf 198th LIB Americal Division.
