Posted: 12/31/1969 Name: Jim Owens Message: Doug, the “Theory” behind the Latrine in the middle of the Patrol Base is; The enemy will smell the Latrine from quite some distance away, then follow the scent, not realizing they would be following a scent towards a Ranger Patrol Base and once they had surround the Patrol Base “We” would have them right where we wanted them. Because they had not realized they had just surrounded a Ranger Patrol base, once they initiated their attack on “US”, we now had the advantage due to no matter what direction we fired in, we would hit the Son’s a Bitches. It’s a great tactical advantage to killing as many of the enemy as possible in the shortest time possible. Surrounded equals maximum effective kill ratio per rounds fired, it’s taught in the basic course, where have you been Doug…. |

Posted: 12/31/1969 Name: Mike Keohane Message: I finally managed to keep a New Year's resolution! I resolved to reduce my weight from 215 to 200 in 2016. This morning, the scale read 198.5. However, I and my Italian sister-in-law are hosting a little New Year's party and we are both cooking. Also, tomorrow, we will be visiting her twin daughters who have decided to have a smoked ham for New Year's Day dinner with, as they say, "Southern style" trimmings. So, I think that I will be over 200 by Monday. To all, I wish a Happy New Year. See you on Thursday. RLTW |
