TRUCK JOCKEYS
Some real cowboys. Had to be alittle dinky dau to drive a rolling bomb through Indian Country time after time.
Steve, no more wrecks abandoned on Mang Yang Pass. Now it's a beautiful drive through the mountains on a nicely paved road. We stopped for some Kodak moments of some of the vistas. I'll post them later.
In FEB68 I drove several times through Hai Van Pass. This was while moving the 82nd Abn. Div. from Chu Lai up to Phu Bai. My unit, 1/17 Cav, was most of the convoy security force. Another dangerous place. I was hoping to make it back through there on this trip, but it didn't happen.
