Bet you paid 50 P to watch John Wayne grease all those bad injuns....

Not The Wild West butttt..... During Operation Allen Brook at Go Noi Island/ Liberty bridge op. ( may 68) I was sent to the LZ of 3/27. To hump ammo for Echo 2/27 and others , wandered over to their(3/27) Bn. CP area one night and they were showing ' the Green Berets " . . . everyone was rolling around laughing when we took about the usual 6- 8 82mm rounds. . . . "axxholes and elbows " no one hurt but a really great night. . . . ahhh ,the power ( craziness ) of youth.
