REST IN PEACE
"DUTCH"



"HONOR GUARD"


" FIDDLER'S GREEN "

Halfway down the trail to Hell
In a shady meadow green
Are the Souls of all dead Troopers camped
Near a good old-time canteen,
And this eternal resting place is
know as Fiddlers' Green

Marching past straight through to Hell
The Infantry are seen
Accompanied by the Engineers,
Artillery and Marines,
For none but the shades of Cavalrymen
Dismount at Fiddlers' Green

Though some go curving down the trail
To seek a warmer scene,
No Trooper ever gets to Hell
Ere he's emptied his canteen.
And so rides back to drink again
With friends at Fiddlers' Green

And so when man and horse go down
Beneath a sabre keen,
Or on roaring charge of fierce melee
You stop a bullet clean.
And the hostiles come to get your scalp
Just empty your canteen,
And put your pistol to your head
And go to Fiddlers Green

NOTE:
The origin and author of Fiddlers' Green is unkown. It was believed to have originated in the 1800's and

was composed as a song sung by the soldiers of the 6th and 7th Cavalry. Its first known appearance in published form was in a 1923 Cavalry Journal.

MORE PICTURE'S BELOW FROM DUTCH'S TOUR!







The next 3 picture's below are from
Lou "Rocket" Rochat, who served with Dutch.
Thanks Rocket!


FROM "ROCKET"
I was one of "Dutch's" pilots at Lai Khe with Echo Troop, 1/9. This first pic is just after we formed Echo Troop. I came down from Apache Troop. The Echo Troop Star patch is on my right shirt pocket.



This 2nd pic is what i was flying just before going
to Lai Khe. I was in Apache Troop
at Song Be 1970 and doing the Cambodia Invasion.



Let's say this 3rd pic is ol "Ron Timberlake"
doing a Wingover for "Dutch" 30 years earlier.





WE THANK YOU
FOR YOUR VISIT HERE!
