More detail on this person: My husband Charles
Manning was in class ORWAC 65-22 at Fort
Rucker, Al. He was also at Fort Wolters in June
of 1965. The numbers on his Record of
Assignments is- ORWAC 1-H-1981B. He also has
typed Student Officer. The class information of
Chuck's was on his Record of Asignments that was
done in June of 1974.Chuck was with Troop C 1st
Squadron 9th Cavalry, 1st Cavalry Div. (AM) from
April 1966 until April 1967. His main station was
An Khe but was first in infantry and then he was
in the air. He flew Huey's. He was in Germany from
April 1967 until Jan. 1969. Then he went to
Vietnam again in March of 1969 but was wounded
on June 19, 1969 near Camp Evans and sent home
after going to Japan for recovery. At that time he
was with HHC 158Avn Bn (AH) 101 Abn Div( AML)
USARPAC. He was never at Fort Campbell though
but at Fort Benning. Chuck and I were both from
Northern New York. I don't know why I am so
curious about these things but I loved him with
all my heart and I'm trying to fill in the pieces.
We were friends all of our lives but only married
in July of 2002. Too short. I am looking for
anyone who might have known him or pictures of
those classes as he passed away from cancer
November 8, 2004. He retired from the military as
a Major on April 30, 1981. Burial information: Arlington National Cemetary, Arlington, VA

He will be buried at Arlington National Cemetary
on June 22nd at 11AM. It's taken me awhile but
this was his wish. It's still hard to do.
Thank you for any help you can give to me.
