A picture of a helicopter over Camp Wentzel, home of Company A, 2/9th Infantry (Manchu), 1969. Notice the sign on the telephone pole that reads, "Are you a Dilbert?" I did not remember the use of the term Dilbert in those days. | |
The life and times in a mechanized infantry unit. A picture of a SSG Bank with the troops doing "motor stables." Company A, 2/9th Infantry (Manchu), 1969 | |
The troops are loaded on the DMZ shuttle. Rolling out just before sunset for another night of fun. | |
Plenty of transportation for all the troops. Nobody will miss the fun. | |
The old man will head to the DMZ and make his rounds. | |
Shortly after we arrive at the barrier fence, the sun is starting to set. | |
Quickly the sun falls below the horizon. | |
Darkness descends on the DMZ and we walk the fence and man the foxholes in total darkness. Usually Joe entertains us with his propaganda boom boxes. |
