Sam, thank you for posting this one. I have a good friend who served in D 1/9 during this. As I understand it, he was one of 6 in his plt to make it out of an ambush. He was point and got mg'd in the chest. If not for the courage & fortitude of the other men in his plt, he would not be here today. He was also at Con Thien when a 500lb'er was misdropped on their command/short-timer bunker...lucky for him, he wasn't short then. (Cav, you know John)

Wow. Please tell your friend thank you for his service and thank God he made it out. I just can't imagine what it must have been like for those guys under such horrific conditions. Thanks for sharing his experience with us.
