A private in the 18B Regiment, C Company, 5th PAVN Division. He was part of the assault that attacked C and the composite unit that Al Christensen brought out to reinforce C Company in the area of Trung Luong 2. He was part of the assault on Hill 86 that overran B Companies CP in Sept. 1966. He retired as a Captain and lives in the Tuy Hoa area.
The small frame individual was a South Vietnamese Soldier, Song Ba A, who operated in the Phu Yen Province and was imprisoned for 18 months after the south fell. He farms in the Tuy Hoa area. His brother and uncle were VC.
They were quite interesting to talk with.
