- Dale Tauer was born in Minnesota and graduated from high school in 1969. Dale tried to devise a plan to avoid being drafted but wound up getting drafted anyway. He trained at Ft. Bragg, North Carolina, and was initially assigned to a position as a clerical typist in Washington D.C. His assignment was changed, and Dale was sent to Vietnam in 1970 and was assigned to D Company, 1st Battalion, 506th Regiment, 101st Airborne Division. He spent several months in the field patrolling with his unit until he was badly injured near Firebase Ripcord on July 20th, 1970. The enemy left him for dead, but he was found by other American soldiers and evacuated.
Thank you for all that you did for our Country
Great interview Sirs, one of the best Ive seen yet. These recollections are always so uniquely individual and unpredictable.
Thank You SIR......for everything.
A True American Hero, welcome home brother... I was spellbound when he talked about his time being on Ripcord. I can relate to everything he said. When I go to a restaurant, I have to pick the seat where I sit. I sometimes get upset when too many people sits around me and sleep comes with a price. The least little noise and I am wide awake. 5 hours is about the maximum amount I get also.. I wish they would have asked him about his health.
Having listened to quite a few of these, it sounds like Mr Tauer had a particularly brutal tour for a line guy.
Thanks for your service !! Everyone please remember the ones that didn’t make it back home!!!! My time was all of 67.. thanks again
Thank you sir for your service 💪 Amazing story Thank you 👍👍👍👍👍
Great JOB !!
American HERO BROTHER!
Leave someone behind?
Being on the wrong side of the river either way you look…no respect for the great army military machine anymore on the one hand, no respect for the young p eople calling you a ‘baby killer’ either…..and even the WW2 vets don’t give you the respect they think they deserve either… Now I wonder what someone of his ilk thinks of the post-2001 military and the newer generation of Iraq/Afghanistan volunteer soldiers? ..and the trillions of kids and young adults playing computer war games?
