He told me a story where one time where he had the privilege to Call in a Quick Bombardment from the U.S.S. New Jersey.
He said the Sound was Incredible, even though the ship was like 15 miles away, when those 16 inch shell's impacted the Ridge, it was turned into a sheet of Flame.
I would pay money to have seen that.
I’ve been looking for a while for 16” impact video. If you run across some ping me?
Just the sound going overhead was enough to loosen bowels.
They were difficult to take out. We had trouble with one (1967) and the ARVN forces couldn’t take care of it. We called in fire from a gun cruiser. No help. We called in an air strike. No help. Finally a Korean squad moved in and the problem was solved.
Why do you capitalize every other word? Are you perhaps, illiterate?
I called in an airstrike once hoping for Cobras but got 2 F4’s. Nineteen yrs old and all that power under my control...you couldn’t beat the smile off my face.
