| Comments:I joined Lima 3/1 as 1st Platoon Corpsman in the fall of 1967 when Battalion TAOR was located south of Marble Mountain. Shortly after that we went on float and focused on clearing the enemy from the area just south of the DMZ. I was there for Badger Tooth and Badger Catch (I'll never forget either of them). My last day with the platoon was January 28, 1968 when I and a number of my brethren were wounded in a battle with an entrenched NVA force located in a village north of the Cua Viet River. I would be very interested to hear from anyone, who served with me during that time.Served with Lima 3/1 from 9/67 to 1/68, 1st Plt ,Corpsman ,8404.
