Gunfighters 1967 ... 1971

   Below are listed over 400 members of A/1/6 for 1967-1971  Additional information will be added as it becomes available.  Most of these men also earned the Combat Infantry Badge (CIB). Research conducted at the National Archives has shown that many heroic acts and periods of outstanding service were not acknowledged.  Many awards were also missing at the Archives.

     Awards received by the men listed below also include the National Defense Service Medal,  Vietnam Service Medal, Vietnam Campaign Medal, and the Republic of Vietnam Gallantry Cross w/Palm Unit Citation.  Many also earned the Valorous Unit Award for the battle of Lo Giang(1) in February 1968.   Additional details on awards can be found in the Heroes Hall. 

     Please see the notes at the bottom of the list for explanations of the abbreviations used in the table.  Please contact us if you have new information to share.  It will take a few seconds for the table below to display.
