Veterans of one of the first and worst battles of the Vietnam War, Fred Kluge, left, Frank Knowski, front right, and Dave "Purp" Lavender stand at a pool table covered with photos and documents from the solders of the U.S. Army's 1st Air Cavalry. On Saturday approximately 20 members of the original group met at Knowski's home north of Milliken.

“They didn’t know the war would last 10 years and kill 53,000 Americans and almost split their home country.”

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe the official tally of those killed in action is closer to 58,000.
