25th - 1966-67 Yearbook |
Published by the 25th Infantry
Division, this yearbook contains a complete roster for each battalion attached to the
Division, as well as the Division history. An excellent resource, the entire
yearbook has been reproduced. Navigation is a bit awkward unless you have a large
screen. For 2/14th rosters, begin by clicking Enter midway down the home page (cover
of the yearbook). Then at the bottom left of the next page, click on 340. When
that page loads, click 351on the bottom right side of the page. Headquarters
Company, 2nd Battalion, 14th Infantry Regiment rosters begin at the bottom of page 351. |

If you have copies of 2/14th documents or photographs you would like to
share on these pages, please send a description of the contents to Kirk Ramsey. I am also
trying to compile a roster of the men who served with the 2/14th during the Vietnam
years. If you have any copies of orders you received such as Army Commendation
medals, Bronze Star medals, etc. (they usually have lists of other men in the battalion
who also received awards) please let me know. |
