May 15, 1975 Wow, does it seem like 34 years has past... My thoughts and prayers for all those who didn't return and for all who still suffer. I look forward to getting together next year in Branson.

As far as I know, the USS Harold E. Holt, or personnel, did not receive any recognition or awards for either operation Eagle Pull (Final evacuation of Viet Nam and fall of Saigon), or the Mayaguez rescue/recovery operation. I was aboard on both missions and was not notified of anything.

I too saw the History Channel Story of the Rescue of the SS Mayaguez. Question: Did any of the ships or ships company personnel receive a Combat Action Ribbon for their support of the Air Crews and Ground Support Troops? If not, they sure do deserve it!
God Bless You All! |

I saw a special on the Military History channel about the Mayaguez rescue mission. I had never heard of this web site before and am very glad to see the recognition given to the brave Marines that were deployed on the Island and especially about the unbelieveable actions of the Air Force pilots. I was a radio operator on the Harold E. Holt during the rescue mission of the Mayaguez. God bless you all, I will always remember.
