How can you find some who served in the Vietnam War if you only know his name?

That's well over 2 1/2 million names. Over 3 million names, if counting the men that served in nearby Thailand and bordering nations during the war (Thailand was one of the homes for the B-52 Bombers). Suggest starting by contacting the VVA (Vietnam Veterans of America); possibly they might be able to help.

What is the Vietnam wall?
The official name of the Vietnam Wall in Washington, D.C. is the "Vietnam Veterans Memorial." It is also referred to as "the Wall." The figures of the servicemen by the Wall are called "The Three Servicemen." The memorial is different than most war memorials. It is not a memorial to the war but is a memorial to all who served in Vietnam, both dead and those still living.

Small arms fire (bullets). Just so you'll know in the future, all you have to do to find out about any man killed in Vietnam is to: 1. Go to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall website. 2. Go to search 3. Type in the man's last name and hit search. 4. You'll get a whole list of names, just roll thru them until the get the name you want. 5. Once you find him, hit "personal information", then how he died will show. In GEN Bond's case it said "enemy hostile fire, small arms."
