David Kass standing in front of a tank at Hill 22, taken March 1969.

We got this tank to support us on road sweeps.  Just before this (February 23, 1969) Golf had been involved in a pretty sharp firefight along the road we swept each morning.  We had six killed and several wounded.  Seems to me the tank stayed at Hill 22 for about three weeks.
David Kass and Crazy Cat.  Taken around the village outside Cobb Bridge.

Crazy Cat lived around here.  He made a living out of selling us Cokes and Beer that had been stolen from our supply dumps.
