Glad he made it.
Hey,I was in a jeep going out to Khe Sahn,my
Sgt driving,me taking pics and he ran off the
road down a hill into a rice paddy,my M-16 flying
into the water.
Amazing how little the difference between living
and dieing can be in war or anywhere
My hubby was in the pipeline when the war ended, so he never went, but his driver managed to roll their jeep down a hill at Fort Drum NY during summer camp . . . landed upright and both of them were thrown clear. The jeep wasn't even injured, neither were they.
Took about 25 guys to drag it up out of the woods though.
