So, you think you’re bad-ass?? Captain Lyman "Chan" Duryea led his company of soldiers from the 1st Cavalry Division through the jungle hunting NVA, when they found a hidden cave entrance. An interpreter shouted into the opening for the enemy inside to surrender. Machine gun fire drove him back behind cover. Capt Duryea asked for volunteers to go in after the NVA. When no one came forward, Duryea stripped off his gear, drew his pistol, and went in himself. He tossed a grenade through the 3 by 3 foot opening, then crawled inside after it exploded. Several minutes later, he emerged with a live NVA prisoner. He disappeared back into the cave, repeating the same feat 6 more times, single-handedly capturing a total of 7 prisoners. For his outstanding leadership and bravery, Duryea was awarded the Silver Star. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Duryea remained in the Army, eventually retiring as a Colonel. He served two tours in Vietnam, also earning a Legion of Merit and Bronze Star with "V". He passed away in April 2019 at the age of 80.

M3 Stuart Light Tanks at the 1st CAV Division Museum at Fort Hood, Texas (Oct 2016). The one with the Japanese markings represents one of the captured Stuarts in the Philippines in April 1942 used by Japanese Army 3rd Company 7th Tank Regiment.
The Stuart with the US markings is an M3A1.

#Repost @1stcavalrydivision (@get_repost) ・・・ It’s #NationalHatDay and #FirstTeam Troopers have been #LivingTheLegend by wearing the @ste soon deemed the “Cav Hat”. LTC John B. Stockton, commander of 3rd Battalion, 17th Cavalry Regiment, is given credit for establishing the tradition of wearing the Cavalry Stetson. This iconic hat now symbolizes a #1stCavalryDivision tradition. #Army #USArmy #Soldier #1stCavalryDivision #1stCav #FirstTeam #Stetson #ItsAStetson https://www.instagram.com/p/B7WnPV8h0B3MXM6rt4Gn-31SXUjiHhpAI2GRz40/?igshid=1g1b69xuxv4on
