Dear Dan McKegney,
I am a student at Aragon High School, in Northern California; the bay area. My junior class has been recently studying the Vietnam War. We were assigned to read war stories, and I stumbled upon yours. I enjoyed your story of bunker 051, the men in that bunker seemed like titans in that bunker. The forces kept coming, but the men in 051 were not concerned with their own lives, but with the fact that if they were to keep up a strong enough fight. The fight would allow the other forces deeper in the base to assemble in order to fend off the incoming enemy soldiers. I really do think that these people are extraordinary because of the fact that they disregarded their own lives in effort to prevent the attacking waves to reach further into the base. I thank you for sharing this story, and story sharing to me is one think that is honorary; you could let it die with you but instead you pass it on.
Sincerely,
Joe
