Personal Stories of Soldiers Who Served In Vietnam


Memories Before and After OCS

On March 29, 2018 the East Alabama Welcome Home Ceremony was held in the auditorium of Auburn High School.  Speakers included Medal of Honor recipients Command Sergeant Major Bennie Adkins and USMC Major General James Livingston.  The keynote address was by Joseph Galloway who co-authored with Lt. General Hal Moore the book ‘We Were Soldiers Once... And Young’.
Auburn University ROTC honor guard posted outside the auditorium prior to the ceremony.

Meet Ups  

Cadence Calling.

A source of pride, inspiration, encouragement, teamwork and fun could always be found in cadence calling.  Companies and platoons seemed to always be in an informal competition for the best calling.  Here are a few of tunes that kept 22 Hotel going.
