Co. C Platoon SGT and RTO George Gray, after spending a night in a banana tree grove.
We had incoming NVA 82mm mortars that night with no hits inside our perimeter.
All bunkers were much deeper when the sun rose. M-48 tanks arrived at sun up to give us a ride
to a road with trucks waiting to take us to base camp for the Bob Hope Christmas show.
