In contact page for Tom Fleming, D Troop Commander 1967 

 

Tom has been active in the 3/4 Cav Association, especially the Centaurs (D Troop and F Troop Centaurs) participation in the Squadron Association, for some time and currently (2010) serves as Vice President of the Squadron Association. Tom also has been the driving force behind the rapid growth of the number of Centaurs veterans participating in the Squadron Association, the Centaurs Unit History (with Dale Dow taking the leading role in that project), this Centaurs.org website (with Charlie Johnson taking the leading role in that project), the Centaurs History project - The Second Year in Vietnam (with Bain Cowell and Rick Arthur taking the leading role in that project) and the Centaurs Society (with Bruce Powell taking the leading role in that project),

Tom was the Service Platoon Leader during the early part of his time with D Troop and Troop Commander during most of the second half of 1967.

Then and now photos. This merged photo (courtesy of Bruce Powell) shows Tom as a young Major & D Troop Commander in 1967- and at a recent Squadron Association Reunion.
