Who's Who from Detachment A-239 (Duc Lap) (Partial Draft)

The following is a listing of all personnel in our database, assigned to Detachment A-239 (Duc Lap). If you were assigned to A-239 or you can correct any errors or can add any names or [ESPECIALLY HELPFUL] identify the assignments for the names at the last page of the list shown as "Assignments Unknown," or if you have any rosters, please let me know by e-mail at (sherman1@flash.net) or by phone at (713) 683-9076 or join the team discussion at the Green Beret Forum.

Narrative Information: A7/24, which had been redesignated A-254, converted the Plei Do Lim Camp to VNSF control. The USASF assets, less CPT Miller, were used to open a new camp at Duc Lap, in ? District, Darlac Province, in the vicinity of the old Buon Sar Pa camp. I need the orders for the A7/24 team. Duc Lap was redesignated A-239. It was the scene of a major battle in August of 1968. B-57 and 403RR had personnel stationed at Duc Lap. The camp was converted to 96th Border Rangers on 12/30/70.
