I remember that day well. Hayes or Hagy (nickname: Gabby) & I jumped in a large foxhole & moved the logs over the hole after we heard "Take cover" as our Huey gunship peppered the ridgeline. We lost our medic that day of 2nd platoon.

ON THIS VETERANS DAY ,I REFLECT BACK TO MY TOUR IN VIETNAM FROM NOV '67 TO NOV'68 ,AS AN INDIVIDUAL REPLACEMENT,UNLIKE OTHER CONFLICTS/WARS, WHERE UNITS WOULD BE THE REPLACEMENTS. AFTER A FEW DAYS OF SETTLING IN WITH MY UNIT,2nd PLATOON,DELTA CO. 3rd BN/12th INF-4TH INF DIV. THAT I BECAME PART OF A TEAM, DOING OUR JOBS AS SOLDIERS & BONDING WITH FELLOW SOLDIERS FOR A LIFETIME. YES WE LEFT SOME BEHIND AS MOST OF US COMPLETED OUR TOUR & RETURNED HOME. AND WE CELEBRATE THOSE LIVES BY LIVING OURS THE BEST THAT WE KNOW HOW. TIME PASSES BY QUICKLY, BUT THOSE TIMES ARE TIMELESS. BEST WISHES TO ALL !
