Cpl. Spear believes this UH-34 of HMM-163 was shot
down on this approach to the hill. It was later wrapped in detonating
wire by the NVA and blown up right below his 105 Howitzer emplacement.

I came across this in 1969 while reading a "Newsweek"
magazine at a dentist's office. In the back ground I am playing chess
with a lieutenant who was with a sniper unit. I have always thought
his name was Johnson but cannot be sure. The marine in the foreground
in the trench was nick named "Dum- Dum" and was returning to India Co.
Col. Dabney recalls he was returning after being evacuated for a
shrapnel wound to his thigh. "I remember him running to the medevac bird
with blood spurting from his leg with each step. Good Marine!"
