Timberwolf Posted May 21, 2014 Share #1 Posted May 21, 2014 Hey all, Recently picked this up. Been looking at getting it for quite a while. Soldiers name was Loy Hodges and was awarded the BSM and PH which I think there couldn't be too many of since it is a battalion sized unit. There used to be a 776th AAA unit history online, but now unfortunately the link is dead, so if anyone has one let me know! Anyhow hope you enjoy!
