Found Men of Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie Companies
(UPDATED JANUARY 1, 2007)
2nd Battalion, 34th Armor Association Personnel Part 1
DUE TO FILE SIZE LIMITATIONS, THIS LIST COVERS ONLY A COMPANY, B COMPANY, AND C COMPANY - SEE PART 2 LISTING FOR BATTALION PERSONNEL, D COMPANY, HQ / HHC COMPANY, AND ASSOCIATES.
DREADNAUGHTS ARE LISTED IN ORDER BY COMPANY SERVED WITH OR BY BATTALION FUNCTION. IN CASES WHERE PEOPLE SERVED IN MULTIPLE COMPANIES OR IN MULTIPLE FUNCTIONS, THE LISTINGS ARE BY ORDER OF FIRST SERVICE AS KNOWN TO THE ASSOCIATION.
Note: The rank listed on this web page is the last known rank while the individual served with the 2/34th Armor Battalion. If we are unsure of the rank, it is left blank. We base this listing on the documentation that we have on file. Many men went on to make a career in the U.S. Army or later served in the National Guard or other Services. As one would expect, many men went up in rank in Vietnam and later on in life. Our listing is by VIETNAM rank No disrespect is intended, but when men try to remember a buddy, they are looking for a tank loader or a truck driver who was a SP4 or a PFC, not a buddy who retired 15 years later as a First Sergeant or Command Sergeant Major. If you would like to have any corrections made to these listings - please send the web master an email stating your corrections.
