I am very proud to have served and also very proud of all others who served as well. USN '62 to '66. Vietnam service award for Gulf of Tonkin patrol duty in '64 on USS Mansfield DD728. Our patrol group was relieved by the U.S.S. Maddox and the U.S.S. C. Turner Joy, which both later became involved in what is known as the Gulf of Tonkin Crisis, which history tells as two completely different stories.
