Description
As a demolition specialist in an engineer company with the 101st Airborne Div in 2 Corp of South Vietnam, we frequently were glorified grunts (we carried the C-4), and humped with the mortar platoon, while in the boonies in order to clear an area for resupply or medevacs. And on rare occasion cleared minefields or tunnel systems. 1966-67
