If MACE was the FB at the foot of Nui Chao Chinh, I went there all the time single ship either logbird or flares. If RON I watched Easy Rider four times. Everyone said it had a happy ending. Best messhall in the whole TF.

Dispensed Agent Orange around the mountain top. It uncovered remains of a Jap Zero near the summit. The active at Xuan Loc was a Jap base.

That’s the place. I was the BDO there but it was just a title to cover the fact that the Brigade Commander wanted his own unit to play with and so I could field almost 90 effectives.

You might be able to give some of the credit to me for the mess hall as I pissed the Col. off and they made me Mess Officer in addition to BDO. Worst punishment possible but had a good NCO and so didn’t have to worry too much. The paperwork was a bitch.

Hell, I took the flare bird back to Binh Hoa the last morning there. You might have flown me.

Aside from sounding like I’m complaining it was the best assignment I had in the Nam.
