seanmc1114 Posted September 9, 2021 Share #301 Posted September 9, 2021 Major General Hank "Gunfigher" Emerson, commander of the 2nd Infantry Division, with NFL player Rocky Bleier (Steelers) who is visiting 2ID troops in South Korea in 1975. It looks like the general's "leadership tabs" are actually embroidered on his jacket along with his rank insignia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patches Posted January 17, 2022 Share #307 Posted January 17, 2022 The Red of the Artillery, here an Infantry 2nd Lieutenant named Robert Brown at Ft Sill Oklahoma in 1968. We suspect Brown, the Shavetail was assigned to the Arty School as a unit leader, despite him being Infantry, not 100 % sure but he may have served later with the 101 in South Vienam in 1970-71.

Saites was by the way the one time skipper of How Co, 85th Infantry when it was in West Germany, maybe a little earlier at Riley, circa 1955-56. He also was a Prisoner of the Germans in WWII, no date of capture or unit given unfortunately. https://www.sonsoflibertymuseum.org/pows/saites-louis-s147362114.cfm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kettles was earlier in 1967 in the 176th Aviation Company 14th Aviation Battalion when he performed the actions that would see him awarded the MOH. The 176th Aviation Company I believe was attached to the 1st Brigade 101st Airborne Division when it was a part of Task Force Oregon. The DI of the 13th Aviation Battalion that worn on the Loops.
