And,I'll just betcha,that not even a sniper had the 'cojones' to pop his head up around those boys.,did they ??? Totally dedicated Brothers in Arms. I truly wish that I could contact a few of their members & tell them how much that I appreciate the camaraderie that we all shared.
Craze

Re: I remember a story or rumor about ROK Marines

Thats right Mike, not around 211. Soon as we hit the ground, they had me surrounded, and didn't get a ding on the Bird at all. That was late afternoon, but a snipper did hit me the first mission of the day. We had 44 externals that day. The 25th, the day before we had 35 externals into 211, and not a sign of any of them. Both days the 25th, and 26th I did 79 externals into 211. I give the ROK's credit, they did work them selves down for sure. Always had a smile on their face. Semper Fi, and READY-APP.
