Re: Danang visit 70/71
The "guard" assigned to the boat that took us ashore asked me it I knew how to load the bolt gun he was carrying!I remember it was pretty spooky! There was smoke in the air, and booming noises from afar, there were flares being launched continuously! I was glad when we got underway again. (Remember they had us shadow a Chinese junk suspected of smuggling.) After a few days, we waited close to an island he had taken cover in during a storm, sent the helo in the next day, and found the surface radar team has us watching a rock in the bay! We still had it a lot better than many of our friends wading around in the rice paddies! Bill
