 Vietnam Diary Introduction

Fleshing the Story Guidelines
You, as unit members, have a lot of stories to tell, about our time with Charliehorse that will greatly enrich the
stories I have included in my Vietnam Diary.
 
I encourage you to “flesh out the story” where my diary entries are
bare bones (I didn’t record a lot about an incident if I wasn’t there as an eyewitness) AND to add your own original
stories that I didn’t touch on at all!

This section is a good place to suggest a change or correction to my diary
entries as an “addendum” to the diary without actually changing the diary entries.

Changes, additions, corrections, even helpful comments, should be sent to the Charliehorse webmaster via
email as attachments or just an email note to warwagon14 AT gmail.com

The diary is NOT copyrighted as it is not my story but our story.

Please don’t abuse this privilege by using the
material found in the diary and the Fleshing the Story section to create a copyrighted book based on the stories
contained here.
That would be a gross violation of the sacrifices we made in serving our country.

All Gave Some, Some Gave All,
In Memory of the lives that didn’t get lived to the fullest as us old veterans got to enjoy!
John Hiemstra, D 3/5 Cav and 48th AHC “Jokerguns” platoon
