I made this video as a tribute to all the men who served in E Company (Long Range Patrol) 20th Infantry (Airborne) AND/OR C Co (Ranger) 75th Infantry (Airborne), First Field Force Vietnam which operated from Sep 1967-Oct 1971. To visit the units web site go to:

The 230 man Army LRP unit was formed to take the place of Det B-50, Project Omega when it was reassigned back to Special Forces in Nov 1967. Our mission was Long Range Recon at Corp level and we generally operated in 4-6 man teams.

At 2:13 Honorable Mention for SGT David Dolby (MOH) 5th man on right side of flag who was awarded the MOH on his first tour with the 1st Cavalry Div. He did 5 tours in the NAM.

David C. Dolby (MOH) passed away on Aug 6, 2010. He was 64 years old. David Dolby distinguished himself conspicuously by gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty. Some of his other awards: Silver Star, Purple Heart, Vietnamese Gallantry Cross with Gold Star.

I also want this to honor all the LRRP, LRP, RGR & BDQ units who served in Vietnam since all of them did an excellent job and completed their missions regardless of the situation. They earned a lot more than they ever received. "SALSA"
