I am curious about your story about Sue. I have never, ever heard of females in EOD in Vietnam. I spent 17 months in the Marines in combat '66-'67 and my brother '69-'70 in the army EOD and neither of us have ever heard of any women in Vietnam who weren't nurses or Donut Dollies with the Red Cross or maybe a radio announcer on AFRS. There were very, very few American women in Vietnam at all and if my memory serves, eight women were killed of the 58,220 total killed in all the years of our war.

Illuminate, please.

Still waiting for your answer, the BS flag is on the field.

Unless there has been some dramatic re-engineering of history, there were no female EOD techs in Vietnam, wounded or otherwise. In short, somebody's lying.
