This murkey photo is of me on my first mission at FOB-2 with RT Delaware 1-0 SSG Dahling looking for a NVA unit which ambushed an American convoy between Kontum and Pleiku. Dahling hated that hat.

Point man Yuk...the sorcerer, then 18 years old. Right after he got off the choppers from the mission to look for NVN artillery. I had two other photos of the group as they unassed the choppers...both slides have gone missing.

Couple of Sgts fixing their hooch at Fob-2. I used to remember their names. I do remember they weren't part of the Bull Shiter contingent.

Picture of the club at FOB2. Don (Dave) Davidson and Mike Williams are in the photo which makes the date probable very late Oct 1968, just after Mike and Jimmy Marshall got back from looking for and finding NVA guns in Laos.

Right before I left (31 Oct as I recall), there was a real party behind the RT barracks next to the bunkers. Some serious imbibing was the order of the day. Here Don (Dave) Davidson ... later (I heard) a SGM. Again not/NOT one of the Bull Shiters.

n September 1968 we all were ordered to improved our assigned bunkers. RT Delaware went down to the old 4th inf compound 4 miles down the road and scrounged 8" beams and sacks of grenades. We Built this bunker with a Sand bag berm behind it. In every alert, senior officers would cluster there because of the protection.

SSG Luk Dove, my replacement as 1-0 Delaware, taken just after his return from a shake-down mission with RT Illinois in October 1968. Shortly after this photo he took over as 1-0 of Delaware. Note the RT Delaware patch I designed on his pocket. Only 20 were made.
