Ground Casualty
The Strategic Communications Command Signal Brigade was first organized on April 1, 1966, in Saigon, RVN. Redesignated the 1st Signal Brigade, it was responsible for providing communications to Vietnam’s 60,000 square miles of coastal, jungle, and mountain terrain. With approximately 12,000 personnel in early 1966, the 1st Signal Brigade would grow to one of the largest brigade-sized units to serve in country. PFC Jackie L. Sanders was a Radio Teletype Operator serving with C Company, 69th Signal Battalion, 160th Signal Group. On the morning of June 18, 1967, Sanders was at Phan Rang Airfield in Ninh Thuan Province, RVN, when he was critically injured after being struck by a truck. He reportedly was walking around a military bus when struck by an M54 5-ton 6x6 truck. He was admitted to the 8th Field Hospital at Nha Trang with severe head trauma; he expired nine days later. Sanders was 21 years old. [Taken from coffeltdatabase.org]

Remembering An American Hero
Dear PFC Jackie Lynn Sanders, sir
As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.
May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you.
With respect, Sir
Curt Carter
