The reality of being an infantry platoon leader in Vietnam

After getting kicked out of college, Bob Beisner decided to take a different path by joining the United States Army in May of 1967. Originally, Bob wanted to be an armor officer, but he ended up becoming an infantry officer instead. As a Second Lieutenant in Vietnam, he led a platoon as part of the 25th Infantry Division. Bob recalls his service during his tour in Vietnam until July of 1970. Thank you for your service, Bob, and welcome home!
