Why has Nancy Pelosi insisted on condemning an American ally, which we have had for decades, for something that happened in 1915?
Pelosi's Premium
By INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY | Posted Tuesday, October 16, 2007 4:20 PM PT
http://www.ibdeditorials.com/IBDArticles.aspx?id=277426742645300&src=DMARTCL
Politics: Congress' foolish move to declare the massacre of Armenians by the Ottoman Empire a genocide will have an impact far beyond politics. It affects you — both in your pocketbook and in your security.
No question, Armenians have a right to seek recognition of their people's suffering. The Ottoman Turks slaughtered an estimated 1.5 million Armenians in one of the largest ethnic cleansing operations ever, lasting roughly from 1915 to 1923. It sure seems like genocide to us — or at least something very much akin to that odious practice.
But congressional Democrats weren't interested in justice when they voted on this resolution. They had political mischief in mind.
Those who pushed the resolution saw a chance to pander to an aggrieved but well-heeled group — Armenian-Americans — while damaging U.S. ties with Turkey, a key ally in the war on terror.
For Democrats, what could be better? Shore up their Armenian-American support at home, while making it harder for President Bush to win in Iraq — a war Democrats have come to loathe, even though they voted for it. Win-win, as political strategists like to say.
Yet what they actually did was stab U.S. troops in Iraq in the back, forcing the military to scramble to find new ways to supply our soldiers in case the Turks, as threatened, close our base at Incirlik. (More than two-thirds of our Iraq supplies go through that base.)
Not content to merely to make our soldiers' lives more difficult and risky, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her allies have helped create a sharp spike in crude oil prices.
After Turkey's government warned on Oct. 7 that the declaration on Armenian genocide might damage U.S.-Turkey ties, the price of oil jumped from $79.03 a barrel to $87.61 Tuesday, a gain of 11%, or nearly $9 a barrel, in a little over a week.
The Democrats' move, blamed by oil traders for the upsurge in crude, has increased our monthly national oil bill by roughly $3.53 billion at current import rates. That's about $42 billion a year. Call it the Stupidity Tax.
Hit hardest will be the poor. A fuel tax is regressive, meaning it falls heaviest on those at the bottom. We're surprised we've not seen this levy dissected in detail by the mainstream media. But they've gone strangely quiet.
Who knows if oil will continue to rise following the Democrats' attempt to hijack foreign policy? It could trigger a recession — one the Democrats and the left-leaning media would blame on Bush.
So as you pull up to the gas pump and watch the digits rise ever higher, please avoid cursing OPEC's potentates or China or Hugo Chavez or whatever. This time, you've paid the Pelosi Premium.
Worse than oil prices, though, are the Pelosi Democrats' intentional damage to our Iraq War effort. Her party doesn't have the courage to end the war by defunding it, which it could do. Instead, it's creating chaos in the Middle East, where Turkey has threatened to send forces into Iraq to pursue Kurdish guerrillas.
On Tuesday, the head of Turkey's parliament warned Pelosi that "it might take decades to heal negative effects of the bill if it passes." Pelosi knows that neither the current government nor any citizens of modern Turkey committed the atrocities against the Armenians. She also knows the horrible timing of the genocide resolution means big trouble for the U.S. Yet she doesn't care.
Well, we do; so should you. Successful democracy depends on goodwill from both sides of the debate. That's now in short supply, at least for one party.
This new Democrat Leaders mistake will cost all Americans at the gas pumps and home heating oil as well as in the lives of American troops stationed in Iraq. Already, the stock market is falling due to fears of Turkey attacking oil pipelines in Iraq. The price of oil is already skyrocketing over the plans of Democrats condemning Turkey for what happened 1915.

- George Washington
~ Why do these two U.S. Marines look drunk... ~
Jack (Sussex, NJ) and George Dros (Cooperstown, NY) are sitting at a table in a Duc Duc Refugee Village peasant hut, near the village's market place. The two, young United States Marines are members of CAP Team 2-9-2. (CAP Teams were composed of about 8 to 13 Americans, who lived and served 24/7 in Vietnamese peasant-farming villages. The Duc Duc Refugee Village was composed of about 2,000 homes.)
In the above picture, Jack's and George's eyes were shut, because of complete exhaustion. It was July 1970. At the time this picture was taken, the Americans in Duc Duc were not sure whether the CAP Unit would be pulled out of the village or whether it would be wiped out. We were experiencing heavy combat. Intelligence reports were coming in daily that the Communists wanted to punish the village while the Americans were still there.
By wiping out CAP 2-9-2, the terrorists hoped to leave an example to other CAP Villages. With alerts at the highest level, night ambush responsibilities were 100% watch throughout the night. With two long patrols a day going outside the village, it didn't leave much time for the eight or so Americans to sleep.
Around the day this picture was taken, an intelligence report came in from the 1st Marine Division Headquarters in Da Nang that the high Communist Command wanted to speed up President Nixon's troop pullout from Vietnam. They wanted to embarrass the Americans on a wide-scale and influence the American People into pressuring a faster troop pullout. Their plan called for wiping out the Fifth Marines at An Hoa. It was going to involve thousands of Communist Forces. The Village of Duc Duc was on the large Marine Base's perimeter and was said to be the main route for the Communist attack. Our orders that night in July 1970 was to set up in the most well protected position. Our Cap Unit was expected to try and hold off the Communist drive off as long as possible. We were expected to serve as a warning or trip wire (Queens Gambit) for the Fifth Marines.
Months after Jack and George pulled out of the village of Duc Duc, the Vietnamese communists punished the peasant village by burning it to the ground. Hundreds of civilian men, women and children were killed, wounded and reported missing. Two thousands homes were reduced to ashes. The blaze could be seen from twenty-five (25) miles away in Da Nang. It was the light of the blaze that guided United States Marines helicopters to the scene.
The boy with Jack is the Marine's village boy. These village boys would run errands, cook C-Rations, clean up-after, massage tense muscles and serve as interpreters for the Marines. Usually, each Marine had their own boy to help him around the village.
Many times, adult peasants of Duc Duc would supply these boys with intelligence information of planned terrorist attacks on the village. Supplying these intelligence reports on terrorist movements and plans may have been the reason why the Duc Duc Refugee Village was later burned to ashes.
A month after the above picture was taken, the boy lost both of his parents in a terrorist rocket attack on their area of the Duc Duc Refugee Village. After his parents were killed, the boy moved to a relative's home closer to the City of Da Nang; which in the long run saved his life the night of the Duc Duc Massacre.
JULY 17, 1970
On what was going to turn out to be my hottest day in
Vietnam, we had asked our (new to the village) sergeant for just a short, daily patrol. Although it was still morning, we had already completed a number of our daily assignments around the village and the temperature was already scorching. As usual, our Navy Corpsman already had treated a long line of peasants and my buddy, George Dros and I (our unit’s demolitionmen) had already setoff a couple of controlled explosions of dud high explosive rounds that the local children collected. The loyal children received payments based on the size of their dud round.
The CAP 2-9-2 patrol of five Marines and six Vietnamese Popular Forces (PFs) Militiamen left Phu Da with full gear. Sergeant Donald Eifford led the patrol down a small, dusty path between two tall cornfields. I was the M-79 Grenadier and a Lance Corporal. When we exited the cornfields, Sergeant Eifford took out his field glasses and spotted three figures entering a known Viet Cong frequented treeline. The treeline was once the site of a peasant village.
Since no villagers were allowed that far from Phu Da, it was safe to believe that the three figures entering the treeline were Communists. Sergeant Eifford radioed for mortars on the jungle treeline from the Fifth Marines Headquarters at An Hoa. (Only a month before, CAP 2-9-2, two tanks and a company of about 130 Marine Grunts from the Fifth Marines worked the same area. Even with all those Marines and supporting equipment, the treeline was a bad neighborhood to say the least.)
Using Eifford’s map grid coordinates, the Marine mortars from An Hoa were very accurate. (He was excellent at calling in support for us.) Our sergeant decided for the eleven-man patrol to go after the Communists.
About a mile into the thin, open rice patty dikes, fear triggered five of our six Village Militiamen to refuse to go any farther toward the mile long piece of jungle. Even though we tried to influence their decision, the militiamen refused. They were terrified. To be honest, having experienced combat there myself, I was a little worried. Without the other PFs, there would be only six of us in the thick treeline.
Like I already mentioned, the last time we dealt with the Communists in the same piece of jungle, we had about 130 men and 2 tanks. In spite of all the men and equipment, we still had to call in F-4 Phantom fighter jets for a couple of bombing runs.
The lone Vietnamese militiaman, who agreed to go along with us, was walking point (first) anyway. He had to pass through five Marines on the less than two-foot wide rice patty dike in order to leave with his buddies.
As the CAP 2-9-2 patrol came close to the treeline that only minutes earlier three Communists entered, the sergeant ordered me to walk point (first) and slam the face of the treeline with M-79 Grenade Rounds. Immediately, I moved up in line and started firing. About a hundred yards outside the large treeline, we had to stop. My grenade launcher jammed from a BeeHive (shotgun-like) round casing. I cleared my weapon and reloaded with just high explosive rounds.
(In the Command Chronology for CAP 2-9-2 for July 17, 1970, it was documented that I shot a total of 22 M-79 High Explosive (HE) rounds that entire day. Although I picked my targets well, I thought that I shot much more than 22 high explosive rounds. It was a long day under the hot sun.)
Once we entered the jungle, we immediately spread out into two-man teams and found Communist huts, bunkers, and trenches and stored food supplies. My buddy
L/Cpl. George Dros did some extra searching under some heavy jungle canopy. Inside a large hut that George found was Communist military documents and the equipment for making booby traps. In another hut, we found freshly cooked rice still warm in four bowls.
We were elated that we chased off the Communists. I took my handy Kodak Instamatic Camera from my field jacket and started taking pictures. A couple of the guys even posed.
This feeling of satisfaction lasted only a few minutes. Suddenly, we were hit from what seemed like every direction. The Communist fire was extremely intense.
Immediately, Sergeant Eifford radioed for mortars from the An Hoa Fifth Marine Base. The Willie Peter placing round was right on target. However, probably because of the shifting of the M-81 mortar’s tri-pod, the ten M-81 high explosive rounds walked directly towards where we were pinned down. We thought that our own mortars would kill us. I didn’t know what to do. The thought of moving to my right or left was out of the question. The Communist fire was too furious. The last round exploded only about 20 yards in front of us.
After calling in the mortars, our sergeant called in helicopter and fixed-wing air strikes. During one of the initial passes over the trees, the fixed-wing pilot spotted a cluster of huts deep in the treeline. He concentrated his ordinance and succeeded in triggering some secondary explosions.
During all the action, the rest of the Marines from CAP 2-9-2 and a few Vietnamese PF militiamen arrived from Phu Da. Meanwhile, CAP 2-9-1 from the other side of the
An Hoa Marine Base rushed to our aid, but they got pinned down just outside the treeline that the six of us were surrounded in.
For a number of hours, we had to fight off the Communists ourselves. It was in July and the temperature was said to be over 100 degrees. (I don’t remember for sure, but the number 110 comes up. Our Navy Corpsman had his mother send a thermometer just about a week before. (He was always saying how hot it was. It became a joke for us.) Regardless, whether it was 100 or 110 degrees, it was extremely hot. Water ran
out early.
Once CAP 2-9-1 arrived, the Communists broke contact with us. As the CAP’s demolitionmen, George Dros and I blew as much as we could with our C4 plastic explosives. After we ran out of C4, George and I collected some hand grenades and destroyed the remaining Communist belongings and equipment.
It was very important what route we left the jungle. We needed to take a route that the enemy would not expect us to take. Otherwise, the Communists would be setting up an ambush for us. We set up security then left the treeline together on a route that crossed through a chest high, slow moving stream. (My camera’s film was destroyed.) While in the stream, a few guys were a little nervous about the poisonous snakes, especially the deadly Bamboo Viper.
Once on the other side of the stream, CAP 2-9-1 left for their own village. The Americans and the few PF Militiamen of CAP 2-9-2 rested on a small knoll for a couple of minutes. We were out there under some ugly conditions for many hours and we needed a much-needed rest. Besides, our water ran out hours before and a few of us were near Heat Exhaustion. Myself included.
Our Navy Corpsman was tired of telling us not to drink the filthy rice patty water. Since the patties were the universal toilets for their peasant caretakers as well as water buffaloes and the watery grave of many insects, the Corpsman didn’t appreciate us drinking the filth through our closed teeth and then wiping our teeth clean. (We didn’t bring our toothbrushes.) Our sweat-soaked, camouflaged utilities were our tooth implement of necessity.
Three of my buddies went to search for some desperately needed clean water.
(The problem was the three Marines went without their weapons. I’d
say the intense heat; the day’s activities and lack of water were getting
to them.)
After only a few minutes of rest, our sergeant jumped up. He was in a hurry to get back to Phu Da for fear that the Communists might attack the unprotected village. (One of the Vietnamese Militiamen might have read one of the Communist documents that George Dros found in the makeshift booby trap factory.)
I told the sergeant that the three men went for water without their weapons. I volunteered to stay. All I cared about was that my friends were out there with no weapons.
The Communists must have followed us. About fifteen minutes later, as my three, joyful, wet-buddies were returning with the much needed water, the Communists attacked with rifle fire and small explosive weapons. For protection, each of my buddies drove into a large, rice patty filled with water. It was about a hundred yards wide and it separated us.
For the next fifteen to twenty minutes, I fought alone in the open to draw the Communists' fire, so that my buddies would survive or not be captured. The sounds of the zinging bullets and bombs were constant.
Thank God, those Viet Cong Terrorists were bad shots.
In order to give the impression that there were more Marines on the knoll than just me, I switched between my M-79 Grenade Launcher to my buddies' M-16 Rifles and a
M-60 Machinegun. However, I'm sure it didn't take long before the Viet Cong Terrorists realized I was the only American on the small knoll in the middle of the open rice patties. If they killed me, the V.C. Terrorists could just walk up to my buddies and do what they wanted to them.
(The Communist fire was pretty fierce.)
I was no different than any other American in the Combined Action Program. The thought of leaving my Cap Brothers did not even enter my mind. At the time, we only had about eight Americans living in Phu Da. I loved them. One of my buddies pinned down before me in the rice patty was even married and had children. Some of George Dros' comments are below.
You could say that back then; I felt my buddies were all I had. Due to a number of different circumstances, we felt very alone. Even, many American people back home were against us fighting the Communists. In June 1970, during a military sweep just outside our village, we found thousands of American Dollars that were donated to the Communist Terrorists by an American College student group at Berkeley University. The donated money may have been used for the bounties on our heads.
I served in Phu Da during the student shootings at Kent State University.
I was also in Phu Da when my hometown of Rosedale, Queens had its Vietnam Veteran Memorial attacked twice by tar and paint during 1970. (It's the first Vietnam Veteran Memorial in all of America.)
http://home.earthlink.net/~rosedalememorial
Back at the knoll, a couple of the Marines who left with my sergeant returned to help but it took them some time walking along the thin rice patty dikes. For all they knew, they were walking into an ambush themselves. Our sergeant led the rest of the CAP 2-9-2 Americans and Vietnamese PFs back to protect Phu Da from a possible Communist attack.
Daniel Gallerger was the first Marine to arrive to help me. He came into the firefight shooting his weapon and laid down right next to me. Daniel’s on The Wall in
Washington DC for something that happened months later. He was a good Marine.
In the end, everyone was saved and my sergeant received a well-deserved medal for his actions. It was a miracle that no Americans were hurt that entire day.
On July 22, 1970, CAP 2-9-2 returned to the jungle treeline with three infantry companies (C, E, and F) of the Fifth Marines, tanks and CAP 2-9-1.
My buddy George Dros (one of the guys I saved) wrote his parents about the episode and they wrote and thanked my parents. I felt great.
To this day, George and I are extremely close and we both live up here in the beautiful, hilly farmland of Sussex County, New Jersey. However, we don't really talk much about the war portion of serving in Phu Da, Vietnam. To this day, it's still extremely hard to talk about the ugliness of war. Instead, we talk a lot about our American Buddies as well as our Vietnamese Friends and the many Vietnamese Parents and Vietnamese Grandparents who adopted us into their families.
ACTUAL UNIT REPORT FOR JULY 17, 1970
17 July 70
|
A PF member of a CAP 2-9-2 patrol accidentally detonated an unknown type booby trap rigged with an unknown type firing device alerting an enemy ambush at AT 872500, 2.5 km N of Duc Duc District Headquarters. The patrol received SAF and returned fire with organic weapons fire, 22 M-79 HE rds,
|
|
2 M-72 LAAW rds, and called a helicopter gunship fire mission on the enemy. The enemy fled in an unknown direction. One PF was WIA by the exploding SFD. The PF was rendered first aid and medevaced by helicopter. A sweep of the area was nonproductive. RESULTS: 1 PF WIA(E).

George Dros' Comments about the above action.
Some time in July 1970, we went on a (daily) patrol that took us farther into enemy territory than ever before. The temperature this day was in excess of 100 º. With only three (3) other Marines and 1 Chou Hoi, we confiscated a large cache of Vietnamese communist terrorists (V.C) explosives, detonators, documents and battle plans for upcoming engagements. (This most probably was a small terrorist bobby-trap factory.)
After neutralizing their base camp, we were hit by Viet Cong terrorists’ rocket-propelled grenades, mortars and small arms fire, pinning us down for over an hour. We called for artillery from the Marine Cops’ 5th Marines Combat base at An Hoa and a react team from our brother CAP team 2-9-1. Return artillery fire was immediate.
It took CAP 2-9-1 a while to reach us, because as they neared the tree line that we were pinned down in, they were also fired upon.
After about three hours, the V.C. broke contact and both CAP teams started back to their respective villages. We had to cross a chest deep river, carrying our weapons over our heads, but at least we were in our own back yard. We stopped on a small knoll for much needed water, since we had run out of water hours before, because of the intense heat and sun. Two Marines and I filled everyone’s canteens while Jack and the rest of the patrol stood cover.
Returning from the well, I saw Jack standing cover by himself, as Sgt. Eiford thought the village might be hit and took the rest of the unit back with him in case of enemy contact. As we made our way to the knoll that Jack was on, we took heavy fire from our right, pinning us down behind a small rice paddy dike. Jack then exposed himself to enemy fire to try and keep the V.C. away from us, switching from his own M79 grenade launcher, to my M-16 rifle and one of the Marines’ M-60 machine gun. Jack kept the V.C. off balance long enough for us to pull ourselves along by the rice stalks until reaching him. The V.C. broke contact, probably fearing an artillery attack.
This was Jack, always caring and making sure the people he loved were safe and protected from harm. Jack’s code in life has always been the same: passion for his family, his country and the Corps. I will always be thankful for being a part of Jack’s family.
What is Jack Cunningham doing today instead of battling terrorists in the Duc Duc Refugee Village?
Jack is battling the State of New Jersey for his Due Process in his right to charge Legal Malpratice against a corrupt New Jersey Attorney Ethics Vice-Chairman Robert Correale. It's been over a nine year battle so far for Jack, but he has some corrupt New Jersey politicians and officials ducking for cover.

UPDATE: We saved the Marine Corps Rememberance Memorial in Pearl Harbor From The National Park Service.

From: Colonel John R. Bates USMC (ret)
UPDATE: A couple of years ago, I was the Operations Officer for the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center, on the waterfront between the USS ARIZONA and the USS BOWFIN. The Commandant of the Marine Corps was the featured speaker at the dedication of the USS ARIZONA Marine Remembrance, 10 November 2006. The National Park Service, which administers the USS ARIZONA Memorial is renovating all of Halawa Landing, the site of the Marine Remembrance. The Regional Director of the Natl Park Service Western Region, Jon Jarvis, stated on the local TV news that the Marine Remembrance would be removed. I challenged him on that statement and convinced him that would not happen without a fight. I passed the word to (disabled vet and webmaster) Jack Cunningham (Americans Working Together), who in turn asked his readership to email Jarvis that the entire USMC would make every effort to have him relieved of his duties if he moved that monument. I was copied on many of the emails to him from Marines, their friends and their families that it nearly fried my computer. And...it worked. In order to save his job, Jarvis backed down. The Remembrance now belongs to the USMC and has its' rightful place in direct view of the USS ARIZONA.

The following letter was written by Lt. Jason Nichols, a Naval officer who is currently serving in Baghdad. He is also the head of Appeal for Courage, a group of American active duty and reserve service personnel who are appealing to Congress to stay and finish the war.
Senator Reid:
When you say we’ve lost in Iraq, I don’t think you understand the effect of your words. The Iraqis I speak with are the good guys here, fighting to build a stable government. They hear what you say, but they don’t understand it. They don’t know about the political game, they don’t know about a Presidential veto, and they don’t know about party politics.
But they do know that if they help us, they are noticed by terrorists and extremists. They decide to help us if they think we can protect them from those terrorists. They tell us where caches of weapons are hidden. They call and report small groups of men who are strangers to the neighborhood, men that look the same to us, but are obvious to them as a foreign suicide cell.
To be brief, your words are killing us. Your statements make the Iraqis afraid to help us for fear we’ll leave them unprotected in the future. They don’t report a cache, and its weapons blow up my friends in a convoy. They don’t report a foreign fighter, and that fighter sends a mortar onto my base. Your statements are noticed, and they have an effect.
Finally, you are mistaken when you say we are losing. We are winning, I see it every day. However, we will win with fewer casualties if you help us. Will you?

Jack, 19 George, 18

Webmaster Jack Cunningham (Sussex, NJ) and George Dros (Cooperstown, NY) are sitting at a table in a Duc Duc Refugee Village peasant hut, near the village's market place. The two, young United States Marines are members of CAP Team 2-9-2. (CAP Teams were composed of about 8 to 13 Americans, who lived and served 24/7 in Vietnamese peasant-farming villages. The Duc Duc Refugee Village was composed of about 2,000 homes.)
In the above picture, Jack's and George's eyes were shut, because of complete exhaustion. It was July 1970. At the time this picture was taken, the Americans in Duc Duc were not sure whether the CAP Unit would be pulled out of the village or whether it would be wiped out. We were experiencing heavy combat. Intelligence reports were coming in daily that the Communists wanted to punish the village while the Americans were still there.
By wiping out CAP 2-9-2, the terrorists hoped to leave an example to other CAP Villages. With alerts at the highest level, night ambush responsibilities were 100% watch throughout the night. With two long patrols a day going outside the village, it didn't leave much time for the eight or so Americans to sleep.
Around the day this picture was taken, an intelligence report came in from the 1st Marine Division Headquarters in Da Nang that the high Communist Command wanted to speed up President Nixon's troop pullout from Vietnam. They wanted to embarrass the Americans on a wide-scale and influence the American People into pressuring a faster troop pullout. Their plan called for wiping out the Fifth Marines at An Hoa. It was going to involve thousands of Communist Forces. The Village of Duc Duc was on the large Marine Base's perimeter and was said to be the main route for the Communist attack. Our orders that night in July 1970 was to set up in the most well protected position. Our Cap Unit was expected to try and hold off the Communist drive off as long as possible. We were expected to serve as a warning or trip wire (Queens Gambit) for the Fifth Marines.
Months after Jack and George pulled out of the village of Duc Duc, the Vietnamese communists punished the peasant village by burning it to the ground. Hundreds of civilian men, women and children were killed, wounded and reported missing. Two thousands homes were reduced to ashes. The blaze could be seen from twenty-five (25) miles away in Da Nang. It was the light of the blaze that guided United States Marines helicopters to the scene.

The boy with Jack is the Marine's village boy. These village boys would run errands, cook C-Rations, clean up-after, massage tense muscles and serve as interpreters for the Marines. Usually, each Marine had their own boy to help him around the village.
Many times, adult peasants of Duc Duc would supply these boys with intelligence information of planned terrorist attacks on the village. Supplying these intelligence reports on terrorist movements and plans may have been the reason why the Duc Duc Refugee Village was later burned to ashes.
A month after the above picture was taken, the boy lost both of his parents in a terrorist rocket attack on their area of the Duc Duc Refugee Village. After his parents were killed, the boy moved to a relative's home closer to the City of Da Nang; which in the long run saved his life the night of the Duc Duc Massacre.

JULY 17, 1970
On what was going to turn out to be my hottest day in
Vietnam, we had asked our (new to the village) sergeant for just a short, daily patrol. Although it was still morning, we had already completed a number of our daily assignments around the village and the temperature was already scorching. As usual, our Navy Corpsman already had treated a long line of peasants and my buddy, George Dros and I (our unit’s demolitionmen) had already setoff a couple of controlled explosions of dud high explosive rounds that the local children collected. The loyal children received payments based on the size of their dud round.
The CAP 2-9-2 patrol of five Marines and six Vietnamese Popular Forces (PFs) Militiamen left Phu Da with full gear. Sergeant Donald Eifford led the patrol down a small, dusty path between two tall cornfields. I was the M-79 Grenadier and a Lance Corporal. When we exited the cornfields, Sergeant Eifford took out his field glasses and spotted three figures entering a known Viet Cong frequented treeline. The treeline was once the site of a peasant village.
Since no villagers were allowed that far from Phu Da, it was safe to believe that the three figures entering the treeline were Communists. Sergeant Eifford radioed for mortars on the jungle treeline from the Fifth Marines Headquarters at An Hoa. (Only a month before, CAP 2-9-2, two tanks and a company of about 130 Marine Grunts from the Fifth Marines worked the same area. Even with all those Marines and supporting equipment, the treeline was a bad neighborhood to say the least.)
Using Eifford’s map grid coordinates, the Marine mortars from An Hoa were very accurate. (He was excellent at calling in support for us.) Our sergeant decided for the eleven-man patrol to go after the Communists.
About a mile into the thin, open rice patty dikes, fear triggered five of our six Village Militiamen to refuse to go any farther toward the mile long piece of jungle. Even though we tried to influence their decision, the militiamen refused. They were terrified. To be honest, having experienced combat there myself, I was a little worried. Without the other PFs, there would be only six of us in the thick treeline.
Like I already mentioned, the last time we dealt with the Communists in the same piece of jungle, we had about 130 men and 2 tanks. In spite of all the men and equipment, we still had to call in F-4 Phantom fighter jets for a couple of bombing runs.
The lone Vietnamese militiaman, who agreed to go along with us, was walking point (first) anyway. He had to pass through five Marines on the less than two-foot wide rice patty dike in order to leave with his buddies.
As the CAP 2-9-2 patrol came close to the treeline that only minutes earlier three Communists entered, the sergeant ordered me to walk point (first) and slam the face of the treeline with M-79 Grenade Rounds. Immediately, I moved up in line and started firing. About a hundred yards outside the large treeline, we had to stop. My grenade launcher jammed from a BeeHive (shotgun-like) round casing. I cleared my weapon and reloaded with just high explosive rounds.
(In the Command Chronology for CAP 2-9-2 for July 17, 1970, it was documented that I shot a total of 22 M-79 High Explosive (HE) rounds that entire day. Although I picked my targets well, I thought that I shot much more than 22 high explosive rounds. It was a long day under the hot sun.)
Once we entered the jungle, we immediately spread out into two-man teams and found Communist huts, bunkers, and trenches and stored food supplies. My buddy
L/Cpl. George Dros did some extra searching under some heavy jungle canopy. Inside a large hut that George found was Communist military documents and the equipment for making booby traps. In another hut, we found freshly cooked rice still warm in four bowls.
We were elated that we chased off the Communists. I took my handy Kodak Instamatic Camera from my field jacket and started taking pictures. A couple of the guys even posed.
This feeling of satisfaction lasted only a few minutes. Suddenly, we were hit from what seemed like every direction. The Communist fire was extremely intense.
Immediately, Sergeant Eifford radioed for mortars from the An Hoa Fifth Marine Base. The Willie Peter placing round was right on target. However, probably because of the shifting of the M-81 mortar’s tri-pod, the ten M-81 high explosive rounds walked directly towards where we were pinned down. We thought that our own mortars would kill us. I didn’t know what to do. The thought of moving to my right or left was out of the question. The Communist fire was too furious. The last round exploded only about 20 yards in front of us.
After calling in the mortars, our sergeant called in helicopter and fixed-wing air strikes. During one of the initial passes over the trees, the fixed-wing pilot spotted a cluster of huts deep in the treeline. He concentrated his ordinance and succeeded in triggering some secondary explosions.
During all the action, the rest of the Marines from CAP 2-9-2 and a few Vietnamese PF militiamen arrived from Phu Da. Meanwhile, CAP 2-9-1 from the other side of the
An Hoa Marine Base rushed to our aid, but they got pinned down just outside the treeline that the six of us were surrounded in.
For a number of hours, we had to fight off the Communists ourselves. It was in July and the temperature was said to be over 100 degrees. (I don’t remember for sure, but the number 110 comes up. Our Navy Corpsman had his mother send a thermometer just about a week before. (He was always saying how hot it was. It became a joke for us.) Regardless, whether it was 100 or 110 degrees, it was extremely hot. Water ran
out early.
Once CAP 2-9-1 arrived, the Communists broke contact with us. As the CAP’s demolitionmen, George Dros and I blew as much as we could with our C4 plastic explosives. After we ran out of C4, George and I collected some hand grenades and destroyed the remaining Communist belongings and equipment.
It was very important what route we left the jungle. We needed to take a route that the enemy would not expect us to take. Otherwise, the Communists would be setting up an ambush for us. We set up security then left the treeline together on a route that crossed through a chest high, slow moving stream. (My camera’s film was destroyed.) While in the stream, a few guys were a little nervous about the poisonous snakes, especially the deadly Bamboo Viper.
Once on the other side of the stream, CAP 2-9-1 left for their own village. The Americans and the few PF Militiamen of CAP 2-9-2 rested on a small knoll for a couple of minutes. We were out there under some ugly conditions for many hours and we needed a much-needed rest. Besides, our water ran out hours before and a few of us were near Heat Exhaustion. Myself included.
Our Navy Corpsman was tired of telling us not to drink the filthy rice patty water. Since the patties were the universal toilets for their peasant caretakers as well as water buffaloes and the watery grave of many insects, the Corpsman didn’t appreciate us drinking the filth through our closed teeth and then wiping our teeth clean. (We didn’t bring our toothbrushes.) Our sweat-soaked, camouflaged utilities were our tooth implement of necessity.
Three of my buddies went to search for some desperately needed clean water.
(The problem was the three Marines went without their weapons. I’d
say the intense heat; the day’s activities and lack of water were getting
to them.)
After only a few minutes of rest, our sergeant jumped up. He was in a hurry to get back to Phu Da for fear that the Communists might attack the unprotected village. (One of the Vietnamese Militiamen might have read one of the Communist documents that George Dros found in the makeshift booby trap factory.)
I told the sergeant that the three men went for water without their weapons. I volunteered to stay. All I cared about was that my friends were out there with no weapons.
The Communists must have followed us. About fifteen minutes later, as my three, joyful, wet-buddies were returning with the much needed water, the Communists attacked with rifle fire and small explosive weapons. For protection, each of my buddies drove into a large, rice patty filled with water. It was about a hundred yards wide and it separated us.
For the next fifteen to twenty minutes, I fought alone in the open to draw the Communists' fire, so that my buddies would survive or not be captured. The sounds of the zinging bullets and bombs were constant.
Thank God, those Viet Cong Terrorists were bad shots.
In order to give the impression that there were more Marines on the knoll than just me, I switched between my M-79 Grenade Launcher to my buddies' M-16 Rifles and a
M-60 Machinegun. However, I'm sure it didn't take long before the Viet Cong Terrorists realized I was the only American on the small knoll in the middle of the open rice patties. If they killed me, the V.C. Terrorists could just walk up to my buddies and do what they wanted to them.
(The Communist fire was pretty fierce.)
I was no different than any other American in the Combined Action Program. The thought of leaving my Cap Brothers did not even enter my mind. At the time, we only had about eight Americans living in Phu Da. I loved them. One of my buddies pinned down before me in the rice patty was even married and had children. Some of George Dros' comments are below.
You could say that back then; I felt my buddies were all I had. Due to a number of different circumstances, we felt very alone. Even, many American people back home were against us fighting the Communists. In June 1970, during a military sweep just outside our village, we found thousands of American Dollars that were donated to the Communist Terrorists by an American College student group at Berkeley University. The donated money may have been used for the bounties on our heads.
I served in Phu Da during the student shootings at Kent State University.
I was also in Phu Da when my hometown of Rosedale, Queens had its Vietnam Veteran Memorial attacked twice by tar and paint during 1970. (It's the first Vietnam Veteran Memorial in all of America.)
http://home.earthlink.net/~rosedalememorial
Back at the knoll, a couple of the Marines who left with my sergeant returned to help but it took them some time walking along the thin rice patty dikes. For all they knew, they were walking into an ambush themselves. Our sergeant led the rest of the CAP 2-9-2 Americans and Vietnamese PFs back to protect Phu Da from a possible Communist attack.
Daniel Gallerger was the first Marine to arrive to help me. He came into the firefight shooting his weapon and laid down right next to me. Daniel’s on The Wall in
Washington DC for something that happened months later. He was a good Marine.
In the end, everyone was saved and my sergeant received a well-deserved medal for his actions. It was a miracle that no Americans were hurt that entire day.
On July 22, 1970, CAP 2-9-2 returned to the jungle treeline with three infantry companies (C, E, and F) of the Fifth Marines, tanks and CAP 2-9-1.
My buddy George Dros (one of the guys I saved) wrote his parents about the episode and they wrote and thanked my parents. I felt great.
To this day, George and I are extremely close and we both live up here in the beautiful, hilly farmland of Sussex County, New Jersey. However, we don't really talk much about the war portion of serving in Phu Da, Vietnam. To this day, it's still extremely hard to talk about the ugliness of war. Instead, we talk a lot about our American Buddies as well as our Vietnamese Friends and the many Vietnamese Parents and Vietnamese Grandparents who adopted us into their families.
ACTUAL UNIT REPORT FOR JULY 17, 1970
17 July 70
|
A PF member of a CAP 2-9-2 patrol accidentally detonated an unknown type booby trap rigged with an unknown type firing device alerting an enemy ambush at AT 872500, 2.5 km N of Duc Duc District Headquarters. The patrol received SAF and returned fire with organic weapons fire, 22 M-79 HE rds,
|
|
2 M-72 LAAW rds, and called a helicopter gunship fire mission on the enemy. The enemy fled in an unknown direction. One PF was WIA by the exploding SFD. The PF was rendered first aid and medevaced by helicopter. A sweep of the area was nonproductive. RESULTS: 1 PF WIA(E).
George Dros' Comments about the above action.
|
Some time in July 1970, we went on a (daily) patrol that took us farther into enemy territory than ever before. The temperature this day was in excess of 100 º. With only three (3) other Marines and 1 Chou Hoi, we confiscated a large cache of Vietnamese communist terrorists (V.C) explosives, detonators, documents and battle plans for upcoming engagements. (This most probably was a small terrorist bobby-trap factory.)
After neutralizing their base camp, we were hit by Viet Cong terrorists’ rocket-propelled grenades, mortars and small arms fire, pinning us down for over an hour. We called for artillery from the Marine Cops’ 5th Marines Combat base at An Hoa and a react team from our brother CAP team 2-9-1. Return artillery fire was immediate.
It took CAP 2-9-1 a while to reach us, because as they neared the tree line that we were pinned down in, they were also fired upon.
After about three hours, the V.C. broke contact and both CAP teams started back to their respective villages. We had to cross a chest deep river, carrying our weapons over our heads, but at least we were in our own back yard. We stopped on a small knoll for much needed water, since we had run out of water hours before, because of the intense heat and sun. Two Marines and I filled everyone’s canteens while Jack and the rest of the patrol stood cover.
Returning from the well, I saw Jack standing cover by himself, as Sgt. Eiford thought the village might be hit and took the rest of the unit back with him in case of enemy contact. As we made our way to the knoll that Jack was on, we took heavy fire from our right, pinning us down behind a small rice paddy dike. Jack then exposed himself to enemy fire to try and keep the V.C. away from us, switching from his own M79 grenade launcher, to my M-16 rifle and one of the Marines’ M-60 machine gun. Jack kept the V.C. off balance long enough for us to pull ourselves along by the rice stalks until reaching him. The V.C. broke contact, probably fearing an artillery attack.
This was Jack, always caring and making sure the people he loved were safe and protected from harm. Jack’s code in life has always been the same: passion for his family, his country and the Corps. I will always be thankful for being a part of Jack’s family.
