 I'm not sure but I think we were on the boats for about a week. I think we waited 3 days at the mouth of the Siagon River waiting for down river traffic to clear, So we could go up river to Saigon.....

The 62nd was a short time span (one yr.) in my life, But I will never forget the time I spent with those guys. It's just impossible to recount all the things that happend to me..Meeting the ROK Marines at midnight 5 miles from compound on a dark road.. Being called out in the middle of the night because someone attacked an ammo dump I did not even know exist....Spending the night on the road to De Lot in the middle of nowhere. Pulling security on a small bridge, waiting for more 62 guys to come and repair it.We did it ALL and did not wait on anyone else.
