JCook19.JPG"Base Camp" - Jan 1966"Base Camp" - We arrived on Jan 1966 (by Starlifter - C-141 on dirt runway) and as you see we are the only one in the area ('B' Battery 2/9 Field Artillery). We only called it "Base Camp" and by February we we in the 'boonies' and never saw Base Camp again. In Jan and Feb of 1966 we ONLY had tents. When I came back in (to rotate out) Dec 1966 there were walkways and wooden barracks and Mess hall.
This hole is where we later put in two CONEXs and made our FDC bunker. Left to Right: Sp4 James McBrayer, Jr, PFC Richard A. Williams.Jan 13, 2012

Brigade_Swap_2.JPGHistoric SwapHere is the absolute proof that the 3d Bde of the 25th Inf Div and the 3d Bde of the 4th Inf Div were SWAPPED and not returned to their parent units, thus forever screwing up the history of BOTH brigades. Now you see it in "black & white".Jan 04, 2012
