Summary edit

Description
English: U.S. Army Lt. Col. Jim Buckner (sitting, left), retired and 1st Sgt. John Therrien, who served together in Vietnam in Company D, 1st Battalion, 5th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Cavalry Division, chat with Maj. Gen. Anthony R. Ierardi, 1st Cavalry Divison commanding general, during a reunion of "The D 1-5," April 16, 2013. During an operation in the Bong Son area on March 13, 1967, Buckner, then a captain and the company commander, was shot by a sniper in the right temple. Therrien, then a specialist and Buckner's radio telephone operator, performed triage on Buckner's wound and called in a medevac, saving his life. After Buckner was flown out of the combat zone, Therrien took command of the company for two hours until a new commander could be flown in. The two battle buddies didn't see each other for 46 years, until the reunion brought them together again. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Ken Scar, 7th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment)
