The name 'THE WALKING DEAD' was as follows:
The Walking Dead was a book, about a marine outfit in 1965 - 1966 in Vietnam. Mike 3/9 was named The walking Dead by the Air Force. They were walking into Da Nang airport thru the Air Force security when one Airman stated "you guys look like you are walking dead" it stuck and became the name of Mike Co. briefly, until regiment took it over. Mike Co. then became "Shadow Warriors Death In The Dark".
If I remember it all correctly.
Now you know the beginning of the story!
