On Mother's Day 1968, all of the men of the Recon platoon of 2/1 gave their lives on a mountian top trying to hold off the NVA from over running the Kham duc Special Forces Camp down in the valley.
We buried one of them today.
This is the story of my platoon before I took them over in 1971. They were just your average middle America kids who were drafted, but they would go wherever you asked them to go and they would fight whenever you asked them to fight and they would die whenever you asked them to die.
