Green Tracers
Dave,
Thank you for your kindness. Do you also remember the green tracers?
As an aside, on my first missions, we combined my area orientation with a recon insert. The team got immediate contact and as we started fire support, I commented to the HAC that all the birds coming up from the jungle were amazing. He commented on my parentage and probability of continued life and pointed out that the "birds" I thought were so remarkable were tracers. Yes, you can see them coming. These were most .30 cal at the foot of Elephant Valley near DaNang.
Semper Fi and thank you for your service,
Scarface
