Was in Germany during Vietnam and returned in early 70's. He served under General Goodpaster in 1966. He is my birth father and I wasnt aware of this until my 25th birthday and have been attempting to locate him or his relatives ever since... I only have a few photographs and very sketchy details... any info is welcomed... I was born Erik Thomas on July, 4th 1967 in Washington D.C. and I have pictures of him with me so I assume he is aware of my existence.
