I was with the float, comm plt, but assigned to CP security, ran patrols out of the cp in MaiLoc on the Qua Viet river, rockpile, camp carroll, khe san, quang tri. Some bridge, don't know the name. On some hill that sat above some army unit, lots of rockets every day. Guarded the 105's there. Hi everyone. Steve
