Spent Thanksgiving on USNS Daniel I. Sultan with C Co, 2/3d Infantry (Old Guard), 199th Light Infantry Bde, enroute to Vung Tau and ultimately Long Binhn and the boonies. We dined on Turkey, etc, while trying to keep our metal meal trays from sliding off the table as the Pacific was a little rough that day. Indeed, seas were rough most of the 21 or so day trip. We pulled KP duty in the galley every other day. Never wanted to go on a ship again until my wife made me go on a cruise over 30 years later.
