One of my teammates on A-344, Bunard, Viet Nam, SSG Charles P. Orona, served on the
same team with SSG Sadler during Orona's previous tour in Viet Nam.

I visited the grave of SSG Barry Sadler at the Nashville National Cemetery on April 6, 2013. SSG Sadler (November 1, 1940 - November 5, 1989) was an American soldier, author, singer and songwriter. SSG Sadler served as a Special Forces combat medic with the United States Army during the Vietnam War, and is most famous for his song that you posted, the "Ballad of the Green Berets".
He’s buried in section NN, which is in the lower central section of the map, just to the right of the railroad track.

MSG Dan Castaneda, I may have mentioned this to you before. When I was at Camp Mackall for SF Phase 1 (APR-MAY70), on the days we were in the classroom (at the time, it was a small single room building), before class began, the instructors would bring us to attention and we’d have to sing the “Ballad of the Green Berets”!

For a continuation check out Nancy Ames record of 'He wore a Green Beret' . It is old and may take a while to find butI assure you that it is well worth it. If you were there or the wife of someone that was it will touch you beyond belief
