DD,
First, thank you for your service. I hold that in the highest esteem. As to your reference to the 1st Recon Bn., I can associate with their mind set as I was a member of that group; however some time before Nam. As you said, they are indeed crazy folks.
Secondly, Please, Please, Please write that book!!! Write about it ALL. Don't omit anything!! I have a good friend who was a Medevac pilot in Nam and he can tell stories that will curl your hair. This is the only way future generations can appreciate what you guys gave to this country, instead of the crap they're told in school by the liberal socialists. Your "book" is as good as any of the many others I've read about the same era.

Bravo Zulu, my friend and thanks again.
Semper Fidelis, Jim
