Final Mission of SP4 Walter H. Anslow
Operation Carentan and Operation Carentan II (March 18 - May 17, 1968) were security operations conducted by the 1st and 2nd Brigades, 101st Airborne Division and the 3rd Brigade, 82nd Airborne Division in Thua Thien Province, RVN. During Carentan, the 101st Airborne Division focused closely around the provincial capital city of Hue. Generally, the division’s 2nd Brigade was deployed to the northwest of Hue. The brigade was directed to search the foothills that reportedly held the North Vietnamese Army's Base Area 114. On March 22nd, the 2nd Battalion, 501st Infantry Regiment and the 1st Battalion, 502nd Infantry Regiment deployed into Base Area 114. During fighting at Nui Hon Vuon (Hill 309), a trooper from D Company, 2/501st, SP4 Walter H. Anslow, was killed when a mortar round fell on his company’s position.

honoring you....
Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. It is especially tragic that your father took his life, apparently in pain from your death, shortly after you died.
