Trying to locate: Anyone who served with PFC Richard Smith Kendrick
Branch of Service: Army
Unit was: Echo 2/12 1st Cavalry Division
Where served: Tay Ninh, Cambodia
When served: Arrived 12/13/69 - KIA 5/7/70
Message is: I am searching on behalf of Rich Kendrick's Daughter. Rich was in the weapons troop as a sniper and part of Task Force Shoemaker. He was hit near the "The City" aka "Rock Island East" on the Cambodian operation into the Fish Hook, Operation Toan Thang (Rock Crusher 43). He had a medic, but needed a medevac. The area was too hot for a dust-off. (2) medevacs were shot down while trying to get in for the wounded and he died on the ground before a dust-off could make it in. If you served with Rich Kendrick, please contact me at the e-mail address below. Ms. Kendrick is especially looking for the following men: (ranks were current to May 1970) SGT William Swartz; Spec/4 William Harwood; SGT Greg Barrows; Spec/5 Wayne Hochn (Doc); S/SGT Richard H. Southworth; SGT Vaughn Thibadeau; SGT Cellie Lawson; SGT Luther Laster; PFC Roy L. Haywood; Spec/4 Rudolph Bernard; and Robert Doup (rank unknown). This young lady was 2 monthes old when her father was KIA - they never l! aid eyes on each other. She wants to share the memories of the men with whom her father served.
