Reverend Ray W. Stubbe, Chaplain at Khe Sanh July '67 -March '68, continued his ministry to the troops by providing them with a gift of an initial listing of 19 fellow Khe Sanh Veterans’ nam s, so that they might contact each other and renew their bonds. By May, 1994 their were 33 Khe Sanh Vets on the list, and by 10 July 1984, the initial listing had more than tripled to 62. James Hebron, a Khe Sanh Vet who served with B 1/26, organized a Welcome Home "ticker tape" parade for Vietnam Veterans and on 7 May 1985, more than 50 Khe Sanh Veterans marched as a group behind a specially-prepared banner through the streets of New York City. These men reached out to other veterans known to them and the list rapidly grew to 234 by June, 1985. Mr. Ernie Husted, B Co-3rd Recon, an old friend of Ray’s, volunteered to do a newsletter. The first, sent in Feb, 1986, was mailed to the 350 Khe Sanh Vets now on the list. On 13 June 1986, Chicago hosted another Welcome Home parade for Vietnam Vets. and he Sanh Veterans again marched as a group under their special banner. On 23 July 1988 while at the 3rd Marine Division Association’s reunion focusing on the 20th anniversary of Tet, a group of 69 Khe Sanh vets resolved to organize, and on 01 Sep 1988, Khe Sanh Veterans, Inc., was legally incorporated in the State of Wiscons n as a not-for-profit, tax-exempt organization. Wisconsin was chosen as it is Ray Stubbe’s home.By October of 1988, the Khe Sanh Veterans Newsletter’s mailing list had grown to 820 and the first Khe Sanh Veterans Reunion as an independent organization was held in Chicago on 13 July 1989 with 46 in attendance. A special 25th Anniversary Reunion, of the Siege of Khe Sanh, took place in 'Washington, DC, 1-4 July 1993 and was attended by 210 He San Vets. During this reunion a memorial bronze plaque, honoring all who served at He San, with a Ginkgo tree, symbolic o tenacity, survival and remembrance, was dedicated at Arlington National Cemetery. The memorial plaque was conceived and executed by Mr. & Mrs. Kenneth Penn and was dedicated by General Carl E. Mundy, Jr., Commandant of the Marine Corps and a Khe Sanh Vet ran, a member of S-3, 3rd Battalion, 26th Marine Regiment. On 15 July 1999 a plaque identical to the one in Arlington National Cemetery, was dedicated at Jefferson Barracks in St. Louis, MO, in conjunction with the annual reunion.KHE SANH VETERANS’ ASSOCIATION, INC "We are eternally bonded" Khe Sanh Veterans Association, Inc. is a non-profit, non-political, non-sectarian 501-c (19) Veterans’ Fraternal Organization.
