C Co troop Soldier Dale Fleming was one of the last to leave the firebase when we were being evacuated
and picked up a map that had belonged to Lt. John Bobb.

John Bobb was the Platoon Leader of 1st Platoon Company C 1/22 Infantry February - September 1968.

At our reunion in Tulsa in 2013, Dale returned the map to Lt. Bobb.
Lt. Bobb confirmed that the writing on the map was his.
