Christmas 67 and Christmas 68, I was at Nha Trang. I don't remember my mamasan giving me a Christmas gift, much less celebrating Christmas. And yet the Boston Strangler insists that the South Viets were shooting at him celebrating Christmas as he violated the Cambodian frontier. Does this compute?
I seem to remember a Christmas or two before tet that had a lot of shooting but it was mostly Marines doing it.
Kerry's "STORY" just doesn't add up, I bet he's got a
Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry hidden some where that
he takes out and gazes longingly at ever once in a while.
"My precioussssssss."
Christmas 66 and 67 Chu Lai Rvn. Mag 12 VMA-223
Tet 1968.
Tet- one of our guys got a purple heart during tet, he tripped over a pallet and broke his ankle during an attack.
He was awarded a PH. I seem to remember him trying to turn
it down but it was already in the system, put in by the sickbay.
