This is a response to a post that I placed on the Veterans Chatline board.
Mr. McKechan: I'm not a veteran of C/1-321, but rather the current FDO of
1st Platoon, C/1-321 ( now organized as a XVII Corps Artillery asset). It's
good to know that veterans of the Warrior battalion still take pride in
their association with the unit. The pride that you Warrior veterans
exhibit is very evident to us in the battalion today, and that strong bond
that you guys rally around makes us fell grateful to be a part or such an
honored organizatation. If you haven't visited the current battalion area
lately, I welcome you to swing by Ardennes Street at Fort Bragg. 1LT Andy
Smith (2/C XO) has completed a pictorial history in the Regimental room.
It dates from the great war to the present and includes a guidon of C battery
from the vietnam era. The small section or bare wall in the room provides
a constant reminder to the current troopers that their place on the historic
wall is yet to be filled and provides motivation for them to reach the standard
that all the Warriors of old have established and maintained throughout it's
long and glorious history. If you have any questions, comments, or advice
for a young paratrooper, please feel free to contact me at the following
