Are there any Marines here that were at Hill 35 (between Tam Ky & Chu Lai) during a friendly fire incident on an LP fire team on July 9th at about 04:00?
Wsky9er was with me during this incident.

I know this a shot in the dark (pun) but thought I'd inquire after all these years as I'd love to get some G2 from their memories.
I recall it pretty accurately but am interested in the other perspectives of those there at the time?

Carry on....thanks.

Hey David....

Yes...I have had all AAR's from my unit for some time.
There is some info on the AAR but hardly thorough as I would expect on these sitrep formats.
I've just never had any dialogue from others that were there during this event.

I do thank you for commenting.

Carry on....
