Silver Spur A Troop 3/17 Air Cav 2012 Reunion Memorial Service
Produced by fellow Spur, John "Waldo" Pepper for our 2012 Silver Spur reunion at Ft. Rucker, Alabama to honor all our fallen 55 Silver Spurs from the Vietnam war from 1967-1972 who served our country and made the ultimate sacrifice. These brave Troopers are not forgotten by their Brothers-In-Arms!
The video also pays tribute to those 3-17th Cav Troopers killed in Iraq during their 2004 deployment.
