We turned our operation over to the First Air Cav, a trip in itself, and for a brief period I had my one and only "command". We spoke frequently with a villager outside our compound and one afternoon in mid-sentence he said "you go VC come" and continued as he had. We left, the Air Cav patrol that cursed us and shot us the bird as we passed them was ambushed. That kid saved our ass, I never forget him, hope he survived as I am sure he was working both sides. If someday I acutally decide to return the short flight from Bangkok it is to his house I wish to go.sgtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12317392.post-55294089715612085942010-03-22T04:26:45.869-05:002010-03-22T04:26:45.869-05:00Thank you Eric...the entire event should be requir...Thank you Eric...the entire event should be required reading at the HS and above levels and certainly at all the boot camps, and beyond - especially the various OCS ,war colleges and military academy's for starters.
