I recall him being at B-56 in early 68 before they joined us to form CCS,MACVSOG in late 68 early 69. One of the medics said he could not believe he was alive. Yes, what he did was incredible. He still left blood on a friend’s sheets from his wounds many years later. If you want to see the one soldier, who I thought out did Audie Murphy, look for “Bob” Robert Howard. Howard was an SFC at FOB 2(Kontum)from about 66-69 or so. He was put in for the CMH on three separate occasions. He retired as a full colonel. Bob was one hell of a soldier. Another MACVSOG man will get the CMH from Pres. Trump very soon for Operation Tailwind in Laos.
