The link below is from JACK MURPHY who was in the 199th Light Infantry Brigade from 1969 to 1970. He wrote and sings the song at this link. I listen to it, think its pretty good.

Reunion Update from Steve Niedbala
As of right now, we are still planning on having the Boxcar/Hercules Savannah reunion in October so keep your reservations coming. If COVID19 continues and we do have to postpone or cancel the reunion, reservations may be cancelled up to 24 hours prior to your scheduled arrival with no problem. I will have more information in the summer newsletter as the city begins to reopen, I have not had any response from Hunter AAF to requests, (3) to visit the base and current Hercules unit. I'll keep trying. In the meantime, everyone stay safe because I really do want to see your smiling faces in Savannah GA. come October.

Just a little info about web site. If you have an android device ie: phone or tablet, when you bring up the web site on it and it doesn't look right, go to the bottom of the home page. You will see some tabs, click on the one that says web, and it should make it look right.
Update from Steve 6-2-2020
I heard from the current Hercules today and plans are being made for our visit to their unit on 21 October during our reunion this year. They plan on giving us a tour of their facilities, briefings on their mission and aircraft capabilities, lunch and want to have at least an hour with us to listen to stories of our experiences in
Vietnam and more! Make plans on attending the reunion this year starting on October 19. We will make a final decision on weather to continue with the reunion or not prior to the summer newsletter release. This is because of state/city COVID -19 restrictions, but I believe the restrictions that remain will be lifted by then. We may be required to wear masks but will wait and see.
