["HOTEL BRAVO" was Best Visited by NETSCAPE 4.79, BECAUSE IT WAS MOSTLY MADE WITH NETSCAPE 4.72-9, on a seventeen inch screen, resolved at 832 by 624 by 75Hz, with millions of colors, and heard with decent audio programming and a killer sub woofer! Now? WHO KNOWS? 7.2 SEEMS TO WORK WHEN ZOOMED DOWN TO 90% Text Size, but Mozilla works better if you don't want to be ensnared by the Netscape Network Monopoly...and Turn off your (explicative deleted) Link-Underliner! Hotel Bravo is a "Quest;" "a Ride," not your ordinary "Steam & Cream!" NO Cheating!]

Welcome to The Bravo R.O.N.
Home Page!

Rendezvous Over Night Here!

(Claymores out!)

Bravo 2/47 R.O.N. is created for nonprofit purposes and includes only Sites created for nonprofit purposes. There is no promise these Sites are what you want your kids viewing, but you will let them if you want them to grow up in the so-called Real world, knowing there are choices to be made and not all choices are good ones.
We do the best we can and try to do better.

Welcome Home, Everyone!
All Men Of BRAVO Co. 2/47M-3-9 RVN!
According to our dictionary, "Bravo", heard as a spirited cry from the lips of the impressed, means, "Well Done!" And derives from the Italian word which means,"Brave"!

Bravo R.O.N. is a Web Ring designed for Sites created by men who were in Bravo Company, 2/47 Mechanized Infantry, 3rd Brigade, 9th Infantry Division, RVN, or men or women who are associated with men who were in the unit and are supportive of the Ring's mission. Over time, we expect there will be many former members of Bravo Company who will try their hand at homepage building. We want to offer what support we can to our brothers and sisters and provide this Ring Home for each.

No two stories are exactly alike. No two Nam Vets can sit down to seriously talk about issues for more than two minutes without discovering at least one topic about which they disagree passionately, but getting everyone to think the same is not what we killed, died, and defiantly continue refusing to die in the Aftermath for. Having our own Ring affords us opportunity to work and communicate more closely as we continue the tasks of locating and reuniting with one another in the 21st Century, as well as presenting a united, but diverse and honest face to The World, which by all insightful accounts, has lost contact with who we really are, in favor of who it needs us to be, as maybe we have also lost touch with some parts of who we were/are, which we are rediscovering as we engage the unknown through our efforts to live fully in the present.

We recognize that there are many needs we can try to fulfill by creating this Ring and inhabiting it, that doing so is just a beginning step, both for ourselves and for The World that is just now getting to know us and what it can learn from us as survivors of U.S. America's longest WAR, which some say will not end until all the "lies" have been dispelled.

Though we original Ring Members were in Nam during 1968-1969-1970, or are closely associated to one or more who was, we hope that eventually those from other eras with Bravo, 2/47 Mechanized Infantry Regiment, 9th Infantry Division, US Army, RVN will join us. Bravo Company and the whole 2/47th, was in The Nam a long time and not just in Viet-Nam. The Battalion was invited to go along as a point unit in the Invasion of Cambodia in Spring 1970 and was included in an article in Life magazine that year.

We encourage the other 2/47th Mech. Inf. Companies to develop their own sites and Rings and to join us in a united effort.
