Memories:
Waking up one morning between Cu Chi and the Cambodian
border to an in camp fire fight between an M-16 toting cook and
a poor unarmed Boa Constrictor. After an hour or so of the one
sided fire fight we found the infiltrator in amongst the well
ventilated.

J. B. Carpender, John Fraser, Jimmy (Gramps) Milligan, Philip
Rink, Kerry Millick and Dave VanWinkle are close friends and
still keep in touch every year.
J. B. Carpenter holding either my Russian AK-47 or my Chinese
"nock-off" that had an M-14 round through the barrel as clean as if
you had drilled it in there on a drill press. The cigar is John Fraser's,
I was just a poor kid from Indiana, and could barely afford to keep
my Pall-Mall addiction fed :-)
