Bob Kelsey, 244th Avn Co 1967, 1968. Sapper attack happened when we just arrived and we lived in tents (1967). The V.C blew up a Cyclo before TET outside the Prison camp once. Remember TET well, Didn't sleep for a few days. We had a kill count on VC. Think TET was around 68 VC killed and a few dozen captured. It's in the 244th unit history page. You can get there by going to www.0v-1.com/ I was lucky to spray some sort of defoilant around perimeter before TET. 31 years 4 months later nad I have LYPOSARCOMA CANCER. In Jnnuary the Doctors removed a foot ball size tumer from my thigh. V.A. gave me 100% disability. Anyone else have problems with cancer. Give me a line. The Doctors think they have got it under control. This page really helps recharge memories. Thanks for your hard work. I did have a hard time trying to send you this note. I am kind of slow with the computer so need point and click things.
