All,
My father was CSM Burkhalter. He did two tours with the 11th Cav in Vietnam between 67 and 71. I know now that he was with HHT, 1/11 ACR in Nov 1970. He never talked much about his military time with until I made SFC and just as we started talking about his war time in WWII and Vietnam, he had a heart attack and died. I am looking for information from those that served with him. Please email me if you have any information, wpburkhalter@hotmail.com.

My father, Earl David Kindred died on October 25, 2021 and is a life member of the 11th Armored Cavalry of Vetnam and Cambodia. I know that he was in Vietnam for multiple tours until my uncle Donald R Sykes die in combat. I also know he was awarded the purple heart. My father did not speak of this time until recently just before he died. I would like any information about his time in Vietnam or his purple heart. He was the first of his family to be mitary, but inspired, so far, three generations of soldiers. Please message ann91846@gmail.com with any info. Thank you. Would also like to pass on his obituary for posting.
