MEMORIAL

 1st Battalion 5th US Cavalry

2nd Battalion 5th US Cavalry

2nd Battalion 12th US Cavalry

2nd Brigade

1st Cavalry Division

These names were derived from a 2nd Brigade Memorial Day booklet provided by Ed Walsh B 2-5, the men served in one of the three battalions or one of the support units.  The time period covers November 15, 1965- May 30, 1967.  I will further edit this page to show correct full names, home of record and date of casualty.  All the men on the Ranger25 memorials will be duly noted on the Vietnam Veterans Wall Page so that families and friends will know their unit of assignment and the location of these memorials.  The original document.

Your help is needed to identify their specific units.  Testimonials and photographs are encouraged.
