Hello All,
I am trying to get any info on my late father in law, whom i never had the opportunity to meet. His name was Allen W Hart (SPC 5). The only info I have regarding his service in Vietnam is that he was there 68-70 and assigned to ”282nd”. This could also be 2/82nd but I am not sure. He was from Kansas and died from Agent Orange related cancer in the 90’s. His MOS involved being part of US Army Aviation.
if anyone knows this name, please message.
Respectfully,
rob
