Email: coldiron13@yahoo.com SFC Martin Gonzales, aka "Speedy" SFC Martin Gonzales, aka "Speedy" is another 240th member that is still serving today in America's Armed Forces. Speedy said he was with an air assault company, D Company, 108th Aviation in Anaconda, Iraq. Speedy told us in an email that this was his last "rodeo" and he had enough!!!!! As Speedy travels through the military he sees less and less soldiers wearing Vietnam War patches and in three or four years we will all fade away. Make no mistake about it though, Speedy stated, "We will all be gone but NEVER FORGOTTEN." SFC Gonzales emphasized the following, "I hope this time it is a digit in the win column it would bring a big healing to me, as only Vietnam Veterans can understand."
