Good afternoon.
"Rest in Peace, Sgt. Walkabout."

I believe there were only 4,000 or so Lurps throughout the war and 450 or so were KIA. I know of several dead since, of cancer or heart problems. The number of Vetnam Lurps is growing steadily growing smaller.

Billy Walkabout is a major character in the several of the excellent books written by 101st Lurps and Rangers.
