Before my time in Vietnam, but a very powerful and intimate story of death on the Brown Waters.

SCPO (Join to see) - I think it is difficult to judge. Enemy help fire or F-4 Phantom? After the inquiry and corrections to command control, the incidents seemed to stop. The Australians witnessed the helicopter attacks, so I just don't know.
