biography
I joined the 2nd squad of the 2/502 HHC sometime in mid-March 1967 and after a 10 minute introduction, an accidental grenade explosion, left myself and two others as sole survivors of the infamous 2nd squad.
I participated in 10 combat Operations (310 days) and never knew where the hell I was at.
I spent approx 30 days in hospital which saved my butt, because when I returned to the 2nd squad it didn't exist anymore. Somebody said something about running into a couple of Charlie's flame-thrower.
