MY BROTHERS It has been 39 years since we shared a moment in time together In a faraway place in a land like no other When before the early light Bombs went off and hell erupted on earth On a base called J deep in the jungle we fought for life I died that night in the fire fight Only to return and live again As the Great Spirit did oh so long ago There were others of our kind our brothers we left interred Not forgotten silent in their repose Within us an empty place that cannot be filled grows To you all I say with the most profound reverence So proud to know you all then and now As my brothers for life and all time Bound by duty and honor are the reasons for our kind May your Easter meet you with peace and love As you go through this day Take the time to remember and give thanks we walked away From the ashes and grief we share On this Easter day Derek "Bull" Boeve April 10, 2009 |
| From Webmaster (David Floyd) Regarding: Alpha 2/7 Trooper Jon H. Seither 66/67 I recently spoke with the widow of Jon H. Seither, who sadly advised me, Jon died April 2008, after a year and a half long battle with cancer. She also told me, "Jon searched for his brother troopers from Alpha 2/7 through the years but had only ever found one." I strongly feel it's very important for Mrs.Seither to know Jon wasn’t and isn’t forgotten by his brothers!! We just didn’t find him just as he didn’ t find us. I hope some of his trooper brothers will want to contact her and perhaps even invite her to a 2010 reunion! For more info contact me at webmaster@alpha2-7cav Posted Sept 2009 |

| SGT Berlin Robert Shumate March-May 68 I am trying to locate anyone who knew or served with my brother-in-law, SGT Berlin Robert Shumate. He served March - May 1968 in Vietnam. He was in A Company, 2nd Battalion, 7th Cavalry, 1st Air Cavalry, he died 7 May 1968 in A Shau Valley, I believe as a part of OPERATION DELAWARE. I wish to talk with or correspond with anyone I can, to learn more about Robert's service, his death, and the award of the Silver Star he received. We want to write a personal history for our family members.
