Greetings:

I was pleased and impressed with this site. Robert Howard should be taught in schools in America. He is a great American.

I recently read Captain Plaster's wonderful book about the Green Berets in Viet Nam and his amazing account of Colonel Howard made me want to learn more about this most unique individual. Thanks for a great website and if you ever forward messages to Colonel Howard, please send him our highest regards and appreciation for his incomparable willingness to sacrifice, his selflessness, and his fearlessness. What an outstanding legacy he has left for all Americans.
Thanks again.
Respectfully,

Having just reviewed your site I'm deeply impressed with the individuals who received the MOH and agree that very little is done to honor them.

Col. Robert L. Howard:
Thank you, sir, for bravery in a very unpopular war. It is men and women like you who need to be held up as heroes as opposed to the celebrities of today. Please accept my heartfelt thanks for your patriotism and service to the greatest country the world has ever known!

Neil, First let me compliment you on the update of the web, outstanding work as usual. I wanted to thank COL Howard for being the guest speaker at our banquet coming up in Branson, MO. in June. Unfortunately I can not make the trip.

However I'll be there in spirit, knowing, as always he will mesmerize the audience with his wisdom and wit. I also wanted to say it's an honor knowing that he was the last Commander of our unit when they de-reactivated it in Ft Benning, GA so the members of C Co (Abn Rgr), 75th Inf, 1/29th Inf, could help fill the ranks of the newly formed 1st and 2nd Bn, 75th Rangers.

Last but not least, not many people are aware of the fact that even though they also de-activated A & B Co (Abn Rgr) 75th Inf., It was the lineage from our unit C Co (Rgr) 75th Inf (A) First Field Force Vietnam, that was given to the 1st Bn 75th Rangers when they were activated in Oct, 1974. This was an honor for us also, since out of the possible 14 different 75th Ranger Companies in Vietnam, ours was chosen for the lineage of the new generation of Rangers.

I served under Col Howard in Germany HHC VII Corps. After 20 years service I can say Col Howard was the best commander I ever had. I have ran into him a few times here in San Antonio and it is always a pleasure.

Hooray for these great men who have not been recognized by society as truly great. I feel these great acts of courage are not made public because unless you have a son or daughter in the military do you fully recognize their importance. Especially now that the men & women are there on a voluntary basis fighting for our freedom, the very freedom that some people do not truly understand the great meaning of.

I submit this proudly as the mother of an Air Force Major-Select who graduated from college & DID NOT have to choose a military career but did so because he is willing to fight for what he believes to be his rights as an American.

I served in country at CCC Kontum, deployed from the 82nd Airborne, at Ft. Bragg. Most of my time was spent in the commo bunker sending field reports to Saigon, or on mountain top radio relay sites. I watched the teams come and go. I didn't get to know too many guys personally, but knew of their heroics. 1969 was a busy time, when I left I was told in my debrief, that I was never there so to speak, which makes it tough to convince the VA, that I was. Like anyone else that was there ,it was an honor to serve with some of the bravest heroes since WWII.
