SPC Lyle Montgomery - The General apologized to me for it. He was truly an Officer and a Gentleman. I was promoted a month later, and he came back to our small base to personally put my SP4 pins on me, and give me a letter of Commendation for what I'd done with the TV station that Depot wouldn't even visit.

MAJ Dale E. Wilson, Ph.D. - Some parts of Florida had a lot of useless people who needed fired. At that time, you couldn't get rid of them.

The photo that caught my eye is the one of a soldier burning something in the cut down 55 gallon drums. I believe that he is burning shit. It was a detail that a lot of us had in Nam. It looks similar to a photo that I took of a buddy burning this stuff. My photos are on the internet, maintained on a website by another buddy. the website is alphaco.us

I had the privilege twice while going through training at the Americal Div. Combat Center before being sent to C/3-1st Inf. in the 11th LIB on Hill 4-11 near Quang Ngai City.

MAJ Dale E. Wilson, Ph.D. - I never had to burn it, just make sure it could be broadcast on our AFN radio station!
