The Last Day of the year -- 31Dec67
|
Members of Kilo 3/26 on patrol in the elephant grass south of Hill 861. The closest Marine in the picture is carrying an M-14. (He was my radio operator -- I was the arty FO -- but a newer Marine was carrying the radio that day so he borrowed the M-14 from one of the 4.2 mortar guys. The furthest Marine is using binoculars to glass the 689 ridge line in the middle distance. The terrain in the far distance is Laos. Co Roc Mountain (the location for much of the NVA arty during the siege) is in the clouds in the distant, upper right.
