Was attached to 716th durring OIF1. When we lost LTC Orlando. I was with the 977th MPCO. My LT then is now the commander LTC Schuldt. This was awsome to watch
I was air force police, had an army MP from 716th with me all the time to take the army people. There is lot's of video on the 716th during the fall of Saigon, they were truly heros.
Our “allies” the South Vietnamese Government did not trust us. The agreement was that U.S. forces would be MP’s in Saigon. MP’s defended the city and assisted the U.S. Marine Security Guards to defend the American Embassy. These MP’s should be very proud.
Thank you Vietnam veterans far as I'm concerned the American Military never lost a fight and will give a special prayer to the ones that did not make it back home may they rest in peace. 👍👊✌
@@OregonMinuteman Hi Mac, I seem to remember He was really nice guy; soft spoken and really unassuming; I was in Company "C" since Feb 1967, (I had about 20 days left when "TET" broke out Jan 31st) I spoke w/him briefly about my experience and what to expect in our company "C". I think TET happened within a week or two after our conversation. I believe he responded to BOQ 3 which was under attack. I never saw him again. I regret not knowing him better. He'll always be a Hero in my eyes. Sorry I don't have more information to provide to you. Best Always, Joe
Ironically the American Consulate now stands where the former U.S. Embassy was in 1968; I lived across from Phu Tho Stadium for three years (long after the war) and saw the bullet holes in the walls surrounding it. I also went to the spot where General Loan shot the communist infiltrator Nguyen in District 10 as well as many other war sites in southern Viet Nam.
The spirit never dies. You never lose consciousness. When the body stops, the spirit disconnects from the thalamus gland in the brain . the spirit is connected to the body through the thalamus gland in the brain and the spirit retains everything. The brain is only a transmitter for the spirit. The brain doesn't retain anything. The spirit can see, smell and hear without the brain. The spirit transmits through the thalamus gland in the brain to the eyes,ears , nose , nervous system. Please don't be offended. Im just letting you know your spirit and consciousness never die when your body stops. All memory is retained in the spirit
There were two prisons for Americans in country. One of them was in Long Bihn and I took prisoners there from Saigon. We called it LBJ for long bihn jail.

My Grandfather Jessie Earl Harris Was in Co. C of the 716th MP Battalion, 89th MP Group, 18th Military Brigade. Died 1-31-68 In Saigon
I believe I recall meeting your grandfather right before the Tat attack if I’m not mistaken he was a fairly new arrival in Vietnam
