Check out the tuba brigade just hanging out in the bushes.  These two are trying to go as incognito as possible as they spy on the enemy.  I do not understand why they are using tubas unless they are spying on a band camp!

♦  6 Stories of Incredible Valor by Combat Medics

Dust Off Pilot

♦  Bill French writes…Following is a link on a dust off pilot who received the Medal of Honor.  I met him at Fort Sam after his return from Viet Nam and on other occasions, and each time he was the soft spoken person you see on the Video Clip. He went on to become a general grade officer, for which he had to transfer out of the Medical Service Corp. I saw him several years after Viet Nam, as a three star general, at a briefing on the expected casualties from Desert Storm.
