DELBERT REESE . . Contributed By Cheryl Kutheis On Monday, September 27, 2004 Just found the following (actually found two) article from the 'Lead Belt News' in Flat River, now Park Hills, Missouri. Delbert was a close friend of the family, and I have been looking for this information for awhile. I had hoped to place it at the traveling Wall when it was in Cahokia, Illinois, but just found it in a box of keepsakes --- "DELBERT REESE KILLED IN VIETNAM". 'Mr. and Mrs. William Reese of 600 4th St., in Esther were notified Monday that their son, Delbert L. Reese was killed in action in Vietnam lat Friday, Feb. 2, at 1:30 pm [1968]. Delbert, aged 20, a graduate of Esther high School entered the Army in 1966 and had been stationed in Vietnam for 6 months. The family was notified Tuesday, this was Delbert's first trip out and was leading his men through the streets of Pleiku and was shot with a rifle by a sniper. The body will be brought back here for burial and the Caldwell Funeral Service will be in charge of arrangements.' Does anyone know of this.was anyone there?. Remember - Friday, February 2, 1968, 1:30 PM Pleiku. God Bless All of You! (after today, 9/27/04, my email will change to Jarrot10@sbcglobal.net)
The Vietnam War . . Contributed By Amy Smith On Tuesday, September 28, 2004 This website is wonderful! Although my Dad did not serve in Vietnam he lost many of his friends and took care of those brave men who managed to get home injured and saw many, many nightmares that these brave men had. Most of our men who managed to survive have many long term consequences both physically and mentally from this war. I was not born yet but I feel yet so close to all of you who served in this war. It is heartbreaking to me that we lost so many young men there.You do not know how much I appreciate "The Wall". My Father cries each time he is there remembering all his buddies. My Father served in the Navy in Newport Rhode Island from 1969-1971. If any of you served there in that time period please email me.
