Schwarzkopf was at the Battle of IA DRANG? I did not know that.
I hope you are well, Aloha Ronnie. Have a Blessed New Year!

..The second battle (of IA DRANG-1965)was fought by troops from the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) Airborne Brigade, under BG Du Quoc Dong, with LTC Ngo Quang Truong, chief of staff under Dong, in tactical command. Another U.S. officer, who would rise to the highest ranks, was an adviser to the Airborne at the battle: then-major H Norman Schwarzkopf Jr.. Schwarzkopf held Truong in the highest respect. [7]
