28 Apr 2007 I was there with Bernie, Tom, and Smity on May 4th, 1968. We were on OP off Chu Ya Krei mountain at (YA940891) for about 5 hours when we were ambushed. They shot us all in a few seconds. Then they came down to take what they wanted and shot us all again. These brave comrades have and will always be in my memories. Kim R.
