This is a picture of me during my "augmentee assignment" at Phan Rang. It was a 30 day gig that was created by the Air Force to help supplement the perimeter security police force in the guard towers and command jeeps. We had to go to weapons training and learn everything, including grenades and my favorite, the 50 Cal. machine gun. One night I got to ride in the command jeep and stand up on the back of the jeep and operate the 50 Cal. I don't know how many remember the old show called "The Rat Patrol", but it was a similar situation. I also got to do a lot of harassment fire.
