was thinking about the last real Christmass I had in the combat zone (1968) last night. Any of you ever give it any thoughts? I remember eating turkey loaf and all the other stuff. Each company was given two whole turkys and my mess sargent baked both of them right along side the turkey loaves. He put a red candy glaze on one, and a green glaze on the other one. May have been the best turkey I've ever ate to this very day. Still I think we were just glad to have it without looking around while eating it.

At 12:12am on the 26th, we commenced to light up the back side of the Hiep Duc Ridge Line, and I knew it was back to business as usual (secondaries were rather spectacular!)
