Before getting out in Sept '70 after 2 RVN tours, I got to spend 6 months in 7th group.
I remember CSM Hodge and a few of his rants about the "Big Ranger in the sky." Heard a couple stories about his "conversion."
Wierdest experience was all the young highly trained troops all revved up with nowhere to go due to SF withdrawing from RVN.

There was a Medic, real smart guy, who was a devout Mormon.
He announced during a barracks bull session that he would never kill another human.

Name was Dyrood or similar. Wierdest thing I ever heard.
