Mike Sisco 1.JPG (36053 bytes) The photos on this page were sent in by Mike Sisco - CTT #1.   CTT #1 and CTT #2  served with the 25th Infantry Division - headquartered at the "Tunnel City" of Cu Chi.  CTT numbered Teams were "provisional" until General Westmoreland issued the orders for Activation and Organization in February 1968.  The CTTs then became either "Infantry Platoon Combat Tracker" (IPCT) or "Infantry Detachment Combat Tracker" (IDCT). The IPCTs were attached to a Division and IDCTs were attached to Brigades.  Combat Tracker Teams were under the control of G2 and G3 for operations and the Division or Brigade for everything else.  It was a very unique specialty - and extremely successful.  As many experts have since written, the military ALWAYS stands down assets like this-UNTIL the worst happens.  Then, it has to be reestablished again - every time.
Mike Sisco 2.JPG (39834 bytes) This photo is of Jerry Anglin.  There are many Trackers and former Instructors who have spoken highly of Jerry and would like to be in contact with him.   As of now, Feb. 2000, he is still among the missing.  But, the year is young yet!

Update: Jerry attended the 2003 reunion in El Paso, Texas.

Mike Sisco 3.JPG (15103 bytes) Here's Merle "Hank" Letts about to create a culinary masterpiece!  These guys knew how to barbecue!
Mike Sisco 4.JPG (15724 bytes) Chef Rodney Meunier - also one of those we haven't been able to locate yet - preparing the dinner entrees.  It looks a LOT better than some of the Gurkha specialties in Malaysia!
Mike Sisco 5.JPG (14275 bytes) This is BODIE - (4A75).  Bodie was KIA in the ambush of November 16, 1967 which took the lives of four members of CTT #2 - Robert Brede, Mark Howard, Sr., Arnold Johnson, and George Koon.  May they all rest in peace.
Mike Sisco 6.JPG (18750 bytes) CTT #1 and #2 had some other four-legged companions - "Hobo" the dog and "Frank" the cat!
Mike Sisco 7.JPG (16880 bytes) CO Don Best, (right) overseeing the preparations for the barbecue.   We aren't quite sure what Peter Katzfey (center) is about to put into the pot - but judging from the smile on Jerry Anglin's face (left), it must have been good - one way or another!
Mike Sisco 8.JPG (19209 bytes) The final result - the infamous CTT #1 and #2 Barbecue!  And a big thank you to Mike Sisco!
