Insertion 1/19/"68

The Marine facing me was later KIA with a wound in the upper left shoulder. The valiant effort to save him was in vain but not because we didn"t try. I had to faciliate their egress from YT-6 from the side hatch as the grass in the Valley was to thick and the ramp would not lower. On extraction, I went in with ramp down but that is another story... It was a "three on a match" kind of deal. I have always wanted to talk to Tim Timmons about that day but so far I have not been able make the breakthrough... It was a sermon he gave the following Sunday that had a profound effect on my affect from that day forward...
