All officers and medics in Vietnam were officially on the HHC Roster. They were then assigned to the various companies in the
2/12th. All Medics who perished are listed here and, if known, with the company they were assigned to. Officers (company
commanders and platoon leaders) are listed with the company they served with. Any officer assigned to HHC and not a field
command are listed here along with any other member of HHC not assigned to a line company. When researching 2/12th
Infantry officer and medic KIAs from the government request the 2/12th INF HHC Roster. Officers attached to HHC, such as
artillery forward observers will be listed with their unit, not with the 2/12th.
When the Battalion first arrived in Vietnam, the heavy weapons platoon, 4.2" Mortar was attached to HHC along with Recon,
CRIP and Commo. Later in 1968, it became part of Echo Company. So, from 1966 to 1968, you will find members of those
groups listed here and after 1968 under Echo Co. - (updated 2/16/2024 Sarge)
