Dolphin Combat Assault Into Laos
"Going Over The Fence Feb. 1971"
Abe says: "I was the camera driver on the first leg of this insertion (kidding). We had just left the PZ with a cabin full of South Vietnamese and we’re minutes away from the LZ in Laos. All hell broke lose right after this photo. It’s funny how I was calm enough to be taking this photo and in minutes it changed to stark terror!"
Abe was Crewchief on board his slick- "The Frito Bandito" |
