  Awesome historical detail, Duncan126...thanks! I don't suppose Mr. Hakes recalls who made this image??

  The soldier on the stretcher is my brother Bob Lee, Jr. He was a LT.. Bob lives in Tampa FL with his wife and is retired. and does not talk about this experience. The guy in the front right was LTC Schroder, CO of the 2nd Bn., 39th Inf. LTC Schroder was later KIA. They named a FSB after him in the Plain of Reeds. Special thanx to Cliff Schultz.
