Unknown what units he was in in WWII or Korea. in Vietnam 101st Abn Div (AM) 1st Battalion 501st Infantry CO, he may have also done either an earlier tour (173rd Abn Bde???) or a later one, uncertain.

Uncertain though on his WWII unit or units, say Aleutian Islands, Southern France, The Bulge, Czechoslovakia. But he was in the 1st Cavalry Division, 8th Cavalry in Korea War. I think he may have been in the Cav in Vietnam too. http://obits.dignitymemorial.com/dignity-memorial/obituary.aspx?n=Frank-Plass&lc=4590&pid=185792192&mid=7445258 https://www.wehonorveterans.org/columbus-hospice-alabama https://benningnews.org/2017/06/20/remembering-command-sgt-maj-charles-c-plass/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
