During the fighting in the city of Kontum TET 68 I recaptured this from an NVA.
Still have it in an airtight container and as you can see it caught hell, bulletholes, shrapnel and blood.

Greetings Joe, think we hooked up with the wrong travel agent: If it's not too personal, what unit where you with and what area did you work?

True! No internet back then... had to rely on Uncle Sam's own travel bureau

I was stationed with the 525th MI Group, but the majority of my time was spent up near Hue.

I took basic at Ft Polk. C-1-2 was my home for 8 weeks of hell in beautiful downtown Louisiana (in August and September!)

How else may I bore you?

How about your history?
