Picture is of the:

4th Battalion, 9th Manchu's Infantry Regiment, soldiers of the 4th Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division, from Fort Lewis, Wash.  The Stryker Brigade was part of the "surge" of troops into the Baghdad area.  They have just come home, to their families & friends.

This is my old regiment.  I was in Vietnam May 68-69.  The flag is sign by the 4/9 Infantry Manchu (Vietnam) Association.  The Manchu family.

We met the soldiers at our 2006 reunion.  We support them and their families, especially their time over in the sandbox.  We are so glad they are home! We know what it is like to be away in a far place and having few care about you.  We care...

We Will Never Let Another Vet Stand Alone Again

The 4/9 Infantry Manchu (Vietnam) Association and the PGRs are especially very proud of our soldiers.
