I have some tank pics from the An Hoa, Phu-Loc 6/Liberty Bridge area circa 68-69. If you give me a E-mail address I will forward them on. I ran the Danang convoy for a long while and took many pics of the area. I was Jason Fleece 6 on the net, most of the time my tank security was "Tiger Shark" I loved tanks and the crazy guys that drove them. Semper Fi.... R. A. Franklin

Semper Fidelis Marines. I was a school trained 2142 with 1st AmTracs, May 66 to July 66. I was transfered to FLSG-B at ChuLai and became an OJT, 2151 Turret mech under SSgt Bartley and Sgt Doedynes, with L/Cpls Macnamarra from Chicago, and Mickey from Detroit. I was the turret mech that argued for a prefire when an Ontos blew up a 6x killing 2 Marines outside QuangGnai. We checked that Thing until we proved the sear, on the fired 106, was bad and caused the prefire. I was also the turret mech on DeSoto,where, besides trying to keep actuators working, was 'drafted' into 7th to do perimeter sweeps. After being sent to DongHa,under the NVAs' artillery fan, I came up to ConThien on the Rough Rider the first day of Buffalo.

Oh yea, big fun.
