We are often, if not every day; tested by events, situations, and especially people. What matters is how one reacts to that test. We were once tested together in May of 1975. This event on 15 may continues to test; our memory, our sanity, our regrets, our sorrow, our rememberances, our depression, etc...
I react by remembering; what happened all day long, remembering names and faces. This works for me. I pray you have something that helps you get through. We have shared an event that no one else has because they were not there - we were. Forged together as brothers forever. Like it or not, you were part of it all. You were important for doing your part. To the families of those that did not return; my prayers are with you. If you still are looking for a way to deal with this Mayaguez incident - please try the Bible.
OK, I am done rambling on.
Fratres Aeterni,

1000 WWII Veterans of the greatest generation die everyday. Please copy and paste this to your internet exploxer

Cambodia, Vietnam, and Laos veterans are remembered on the Vietnam war memorial wall in Washington D.C. We must never forget what they did and never forget their names. Those that endure hardships in extreme circumstances have a bond that most people in the world will never have.

America has forged and has become a free nation because of our military since the 1770's. Presently America is losing it's clout in the world. There are many reasons for this decline in a world super power. I plan to do my best to change this appearance that America is weak. If you do nothing, America will lose Gods grace, if we have not lost it already.

My thoughts turn everyday to this day; my heartfely feelings for their families and in my prayers for their loss 15 May 1975.

The new book by Scott Baron released 11 May will be interesting.

Andy, you're often in my thoughts.

To my Brothers and others touched by this mission.

On this day there is always a tear in my eye and my emotions run high. The truth of the matter is, both you and I know we can’t help but looking back, for it indeed changed all of our lives forever.

To the families and friends that lost their loved ones, please know that I and my fellow combat brothers will never forget our fallen comrades. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13

To my brothers this quote from Admiral Halsey WWII Veteran says it all: There are no extraordinary men... just extraordinary circumstances that ordinary men are forced to deal with.

Better than half of the Koh Tang Mayaguez Veterans, have not been found as of today. We again reach out for your help in locating them.

I hope the sun is shining bright in your face, and the wind is strong against your back. That God is giving you and your family an outstanding day. I will be working in my garden today, planting vegetables, having a beer or two thinking of you.

God Bless America
Semper Fidelis, Brothers Forever
Love Ya,
Al Bailey G2/9-Knife 21-West Beach
