Sept 70, Quang Nam Province. I got two frag rings on my bush hat, the first two frags I chucked in contact. Bamboo & banana trees in the background. I was a L/Cpl here, just 2 months in the bush. The bush hat, t-shirt with flak jacket was standard kit in a Combined Action Platoon. We only rucked up just before dusk to go mobile.
Forgot this guy's name but the load-out is typical.
Mobile to Charlie Papa One...the first of three CPs before arriving at ambush site after dark.
Our gear at Day Haven site, after coming in off ambush.
I may have posted some of these before. If so, it's senility and therefore excusable.
