Two Westmoreland Photos I Found in a 1966 World Book.

Standing to the door. An undated one from the 50s, no unit was given either.

 

And one taken in Vietnam sometime in 1965.

[268th C.A.]

I actually met him once, he signed my book on the Vietnam War, very humble and extremely nice. Memorable meeting. RIP General Westmoreland

Man..I gotta tell ya..those World Books were great..I had either the '66 or '68 version, inherited from my grandparents, the cream and green gold stamped letter version..I can still remember the texture and it's scent..I LOVED the human body layered transparencies! I could get lost in one, and still probably could today! Sadly, lost or tossed in a move..

 

But anyways lol..the Navy ratings page in the N-O volume was the definitive source when I was a kid..I was so fascinated by it! Army patches were sweet too!

I loved the Nation layered transparencies you know that showed the different nations as they evolved over the centuries, one of my aunt and uncle's had the set.
