I am writing in memory of my father, Ervind C Strandberg. He was killed in action on January 3, 1967, in a fire fight in Binh Duong Province. I had him for such a short time. Please if there is anyone out there who served with him, I would love to hear from you. Not a day goes by that he is not in my thoughts...

From his daughter,
