In Response To: Christmas 1966 ()

I had 119th Officer of the guard on the first attack, it happened after new years. I was then officer of the guard for 3 nights for the 545th part of the bunkerline. Had a big run in with a captain from the 155th when he came to my area and started acting like it was his area.
Anyway several things happened the during those attacks. One thing was someone saying they had been strafed by a cyclo. Seems someone took one of their little motorscooter trucks, got a couple of dudes with machine guns or AKs in it and came "roaring" at the SE corner at about 30 miles and hour. Who ever was manning the bunker (probably some BN HQ types.) Cleaned their clock with a few bursts of M-60 fire. I roared with laughter when I heard of the "attack" by the Scooter truck. it seemed so stupid. that little scooter motor wrapped to max RPM and going at a bunker. Anyway, those NVA joined the Darwin list that night.
