Charlie Company Guestbook

Mostly for the early guys. Just found out that Arnold Stogsdill past away back in May 2004. He was mostly HHC, but came into our 4th platoon for a short time awhile later. He had a spent round come thru the tent one night in basecamp, hit him in the head, not evn sure it drew blood, maybe. But certainly never penetrated his head. He might have gotten a purple heart out of it, not sure. Mockler was asking about him, that's why I looked him up and found he passed.

Hello to Charlie Company,

I was hoping to attend the 2025 Reunion but I will be in Germany during the time of Des Moines so I want to wish everyone who is attending a great time and enjoy yourselves. I was very honored and proud to speak at the Memorial Ceremony at the San Antonio Reunion and as I am in the twilight of my life, I hope to be remembered in a good way when I go to the Big Jumpmaster waiting at those Pearly Gates.

It was certainly nice to know that Larry Goethe (Airborne) is STILL HERE! He commanded the Point Squad when we form it in1969. As the Charlie Company Commander, I never had to worry about those guys as they were all great Soldiers and were professional in every way as a vital security element for the entire Company. I see Kerry Minner,1969-70, will be attending the 2025 Reunion and he was certainly a very effective member of the Point Squad. A damn good Soldier, didn't say much, but his actions said it all. I was very proud of every man in Charlie Company and it was an Honor to be their Company Commander. Well Gentlemen, until we meet again on the other side of the mountain, I wish you God Speed and Smooth Sailing in the days ahead.

Gentlemen & Ladies of C/3/22

For those of you that cannot see the obvious. The last message was an error on my part with duplication, My bad. This is a current updated list not a duplicate. When i put up another list it will be a current updated list. I look forward to seeing all of you in Des Moines.

a bunch of those people listed as attending the reunion are duplicates. Listed twice.

Hey Guys and all interested parties with an Assosiation to C/3/22. I have not been to a Reunion since the Las Vegas 1993 when I first saw my Plt Sgt Wayne Brown after 22 years. I plan on attending the Des Moines Reuinion for Charlie Company in October 2025 in remembrance of my close and good friend Wayne Brown who passed away several years ago. I know 'Shorty' Menendez and Gary Dunagen are also planning on attending and I will look forward to seeing all my comrades from the 3rd Plt 69-70. Looking foward to a great Reunion in October.
