I know of three father and sons who served together at the same time during the Vietnam War. The first father and son are well known around the world. The son became a Prisoner of War after being shot down over North Vietnam on his 23rd bombing mission. He is better know today as Senator John McCain III, a navy pilot during the war. Equally well known is his father, Admiral John S. McCain Jr., appointed Commander-in-Chief, Pacific Command in 1968. After his son was taken prisoner in Hanoi, North Vietnam, Admiral McCain would visit the troops nearest the DMZ, he would be alone looking north to be as close to his son as could be. Both father and son were stationed in Vietnam serving at the same time, unfortunately, one was in the North as a POW and the other was in the South as Commander-in-Chief.
There was another father and son who served at the same time in South Vietnam, who are not well known, but none the less were in country at the same time in 1970-1971. The father was Air Force Master Sargent James Romaine. The son was Marine Corps Corporal Bruce Romaine, assigned to 1st Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division. The son was about 12-14 miles north of Da Nang with the 1st Marines at a place called Dai Loc Pass. The father was at Da Nang Air Force Base. M/Sgt. Romaine arrived in country 1 month ahead of his son.
I don't remember the names of the third father and son, but I believe they were Army helicopter pilots stationed in the southern portion of Vietnam near the delta. I read a story of one rescuing the other when their helicopter was shot down. However I don't recall any names.
These are the three that I am aware of.
Bruce E. Romaine

the Save Our Sons (SOS) campaign was formed by mothers during the Vietnam war to fight against conscription in Australia and fought against children going to war. basically the SOS campaign succeeded as it gained more members as the Vietnam war continued. this was because people could see the evil of war on television as it was only invented just before the war.
