PHOTO 2757
Caption: Top Left taken at Combat Base Gia La ( spelling) ouside of Phu Bai close to foothills after Tet'68. Top right unknown but I believe he was a welder from Oregon. Bott is if you can see is a group of tanks that was positioned on the hill above us when we was at Hill 63 before we left to go to Phu Bai in '67. Per James L. Battin: The welder from Oregon was named Carter. I was the other welder from the same time period. This could be him. I remember him walking through the tents one morning, holding reville, singing "Arise my love, arise my love, the sun is high in the sky my love" from Camelot which he was in at the U. of Oregon.
