Hello

Its odd how some things that happened more than 40 years which were repressed seem to pop into your head..

I was on the first platoon tank crew making our morning road sweep for mines between Blackhorse base camp up to the hard road from Xuan Loch..The buses carrying the Vietnamese day workers waited patiently for us to clear the road..It usually tok the whole platoon to do this.The engineers with their detectors,the tank and ACAVs for security.While 1st squadron was in Blackhorse,this was our only real job for the day.

We had cleared the road up to a point and I guess the bus driver got tired of waiting..He assumed where we had passed was clear so he went around us on the way to Blackhorse..A few minutes later we heard the explosion and saw the bus on its side..Anyone who has ever sweeped for mines,knows it was never perfect.

The engineers with their equipment climbed on the front fender of 10 and we made the turn back.We had not gone far before we hit another missed mine..This was a pretty good size one as well.I seem to remember it split the track and we lost a few road wheels.Plus I think it warped the hull..Not easy for a 52 ton vehicle

The engineers on the front fender went flying,I remember one flying past me on top of the tank and I saw him land 20 feet behind

I know there were people sent to Japan to heal and some came back,some didn't.If anyone remembers this I would like to hear from you to find out how things turned out

Happy Holidays
