Letters From War Wednesday: Vietnam War – Bruce Eamick.

Bruce Eamick - 25th Infantry Division

Yesterday, we took a look at the tragic end to the promising young life of Bruce Eamick, an American infantryman during the Vietnam War.

On August 6, 1969, just two days before his death at Fire Support Base Washington, Eamick wrote a short note home to his parents.  It would be his last.

“…We’re working with the A.R.V.N. most of the time now so I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if the 1st Brigade, 25th Division pulls out of Vietnam by Christmas.  We used to never work with them.  … Short 90 days to go.

“Your son,

“Bruce
