Thanks for your kind words and I'm glad you enjoy the site. I can't take credit for getting the dvds released with the original music, (I'd love to but I can't).
I can't really answer any of your questions as to what happened next to the guys, but you never know I might be able to find a few things out given time.
Loads of the guys over the years have said they would be interested in a reunion show, it would indeed be interesting to know which direction their lives went.
We've already got the will. We just need a load of cash, the right script, and everyone to agree to it. Couldn't be similar really

: Hello fellow ToD fans!
:
: Firstly, Craig, thank you for maintaining
: such a great website dedicated to Tour of
: Duty, and keeping the interest in this great
: show alive.
:
: I just finished watching the DVD boxset and
: I just cannot get over how incredible is
: this show. It is not just about the Vietnam
: War and battles, but it is also a
: character-driven show which pays fitting
: tribute to the bravery, courage, deep and
: unquestioned camaraderie of the Vietnam Vets
: who actually lived it and the dangers,
: struggles and horrors they experienced
: firsthand.
:
: You can’t help but get attached to each of
: the characters but you gotta respect and
: like everyone’s favourite, Sgt Zeke
: Anderson. Terence Knox is an amazing actor
: and a terrific guy too.
:
: However, the last episode definitely left
: things hanging, especially for Anderson,
: Goldman and Taylor. I realise the point of
: the episode was to show that they changed
: and the same optimism was no longer there
: (particularly as the original platoon was no
: longer together) but I’m grateful that they
: were ok in their final scene. I could not
: imagine what I would do if it ended like
: episode 2.16 The Volunteer – I’d probably go
: nuts like Doc Hock and throw my stuff along
: with my TV out the window lol.
:
: In 2015, it will be 25 years since the
: series ended and surely there must be some
: way that we can get a reunion movie, and TV
: reunion, or Craig could at least use his
: contacts to find out what would have
: happened to Anderson, Goldman and Taylor.
: Did Anderson marry Mjr Seymour? What did he
: finally end up finding to do in his life?
: (That question has been bugging me since
: episode 2.14 Sealed with a Kiss). Did the LT
: outdo General Goldman? Did Taylor and Ru
: open up their restaurant? (It seemed that
: they leaned on each other and could help
: each other with their experiences back in
: the World).
:
: We fans need these questions answered (I
: have to say I was disappointed they were not
: dealt with in the Season 3 documentary).
:
: It appears that Joshua Maurer already had an
: idea in mind in 2007 according to accounts
: of the 2007 ToD Convention. Perhaps it could
: be a movie where they go back to Vietnam
: after all this time to finally make their
: peace with the War?
:
: More importantly, I’m grateful that the fans
: and actors are all dedicated to this
: incredible TV series.
:
: There must be something we ToD lifers and
: newbies can all do to make this reunion a
: reality. If Craig and co could manage to get
: the original series with original music on
: DVD, organise conventions and maintain such
: informative and fan-driven websites, we can
: all do this too.
:
: Keep up the good work, Craig.
:
: P.S. If Lindy Roo is out there, it’s great
: to know there are other Aussie ToD lifers –
: so jealous to got to go to the 2007
: convention.
