Heading north and west from LZ Stud, you would drive through a firebase with what I believe were M109 arty with the short barrel.

Just starting through one day to see crew ducking out of the turrets with hands over ears. No warning when they cut loose, the ones on our right aimed right over the road. Geezus what a sound.

Wonder how many of those guys are on VA disability with no hearing left. Sure did nto help my hearing any being that near the salvo.

The 175s and 155s hurt when they fired over you.

Make that northwest from Stud. Mental image and direction got muddled. Just south of the Rockpile.
