Yoi,double Yoi! That was a helluva game. Not sure I'm recovered yet. Damn near had a heartattack in those last minutes. I scared the wife and kids,dog hid in the bedroom and have not seen her around today....lol
Haven't heard of it, looked it up. Looks like there was a hell of a fight there with the 2/12 Cav and NVA in February 68.

That's why we got side-tracked from going into Hue, I think. Long time ago, but I think that fight was named Tee Tee Woods, dunno, any more. But that fucking PK-17 post! We spent one dark, rainy night inside the wire and got hit. We lost an entire mortar squad that night from RPG's, which we called B-40's at the time. That place was the most miserable place I've ever been in my entire life.
Just wondered if you were familiar with the shit hole.

Welcome Home, Bro.
I was with the 1st Air Cav. Jan of 68 we started North from Phan Thiet, ended up going into Hue but got side-tracted, so to speak, and did a bunch of shit between Hue and Quang Tri. Then we went to Khe Sanh and gave the Marines a bit of help (poor guys), lost a lot of good men and then went to A Shau and that was a nasty fucker, too. Then I came home in 68.
