ROB JANOSKI

WAS IN VIETNAM FROM DEC 1969 THRU NOV 1970
11 MONTHS
WITH
SURVEY PLT., HHB, 25TH INFANTRY DIVISION
UNITED STATES ARMY,

BASED IN CU CHI SOUTH VIETNAM.

MY JOB WAS DIVISION ARTILLERY SURVEY. I SURVEYED NEW FIRE SUPPORT BASES AND PUT THEM ON THE MAP

I ENLISTED.

BEFORE I WENT TO NAM I THOUGHT THE VIETNAMESE PEOPLE WANTED AND NEEDED US.
AFTER THE FALL OF SAIGON, I FELT THE U. S. OF A. HAD LET DOWN THE PEOPLE OF SOUTH VIETNAM.

NOW, I AM UNDECIDED. WITH THE INTERNET, I HAVE ACCESS TO INFORMATION SUPPORTING BOTH SIDES OF THE QUESTION AND FIND IT EXTREMELY HARD TO DECIDE.

THE WORST PART OF NAM WAS NOT BEING ABLE TO DO MY JOB.
WHEN THERE WAS NO SURVEYING TO BE DONE, WE HAD TO DO STUFF AROUND THE CAMP. IF THE FIRST SGT. COULDN'T FIND SOMETHING FOR US TO DO, HE WOULD MAKE UP SOMETHING.

THE BEST WAS DOING MY JOB SURVEYING; DRIVING OR FLYING TO THE FIELD AND EATING C-RATIONS.

KNOWING WHAT I KNOW NOW WOULDN'T HAVE MADE ANY DIFFERENCE.
