Nice background story on the mission.

Just a point of general interest. ODA 555 (B/2/5th)and ODA 595 (C/3/5th) were/are Combat Diver Teams.

With the adding of the 4th Battalion to the Groups Team numbers were increased to 4 numbers - Group, Battalion, Company & Team. Dive teams end in 5 and HALO Teams in 4.

Thanks for the link. I will read it later today.

But the second part of your comment was Greek to me. I was Air Force. Retired thirty years ago. I know nothing of what that you wrote.
