A Note from The Virtual Wall Detachment B-52, 5th SF Group, was organized in June 1965 to provide command and control for Project Delta, a special reconnaissance unit originally formed as Project Leaping Lena. In 1966 Project Delta consisted of a hundred or so US Army Special Forces personnel, an ARVN Special Forces (VNSF) Training Command headquarters, a VNSF Airborne Ranger Battalion, and a CIDG company. Project Delta conducted a variety of intelligence-gathering and operational missions within South Vietnam as well as across the borders of Cambodia and Laos. Sergeant Moreau was the senior advisor to Recon Team 2 when he was killed in action about 19 kilometers east of Det A-322 at Prek Klok, Tay Ninh Province.
