I was shot twice on 27 April 69. I was hit in the right ankle with an AK round. It went in the front and shattered the small bone (fibula) and blew out the lower 1/3 of my calf muscle. The next round felt like I was being pounded on with a 16 LB sledge hammer that kept pounding me.It went through the right thigh large rear hamstring muscle complex (large thigh muscle in back)and it blew a hole out the size of a quarter or larger two inches below the right hip bone.It missed the artery and femur bone. It just hit a large vein. Very fortunate.
Really happy you made it. I’m extremely proud of us and how we conducted our war. We really were the best our country had and I still marvel that I was graced by God to live up the standards of all of you around me.
