66th Engineer Company (TOPO CORPS)
66th Engineer (Topo) - Survey Section
I am new to this website. Just ran across it and saw a number of people asking questions about the history of the 66th Engineers. I was assigned as an instrument man to the Survey Section of the 66th Topo in Vietnam from April fools day 1969 until ETS in September of 1970. With Survey, we pretty much worked our way from the very south of IV-corps to the DMZ and even just into Cambodia for Christmas 1970. Have just a couple pictures from then. We always had a pig traveling with us which ALWAYS ended up being cooked by a Hawaiian Sgt that was assigned to our unit.
Been a long time and interesting to learn what has become of the unit.

Hi all. I was with the 66th Topo corp from 66-69 in Vietnam. I was in the carto platoon. I did a lot of the illustrations for the briefings and report covers. I did many photo copulations and pictomosaics. I also volunteered with the Tan Hiep buddhist orphanage on occasions while I was there. it's great to have a platform to reconnect with you all.

Willard--thinking I remember you. You went to Ft. Hood, and you came down to Austin in a little Opal GT to visit me after I got home.I was with the 66th from Sept.69 to Sept.70. I was in the photo lab. Capt. Campbell was the CO and 1st Sgt Whitaker.

Got a wild hair the other day and decided to see if the internet had anything about my unit in Vietnam. That would be the 66th Eng Co--Topo in Long Bien I was there from Jan thru Dec 1970. and was in the compilation platoon--aerial photos. Can't remember what I opened the fridge door for anymore, but lots of memories from 1970 keep filling my dreams. !st. Sgt. Whitaker (Smoky) was a real good man. Can't say the same about Platoon leader Toteff.
