Feb 27th- [I was] transferred to Golf Battery
...there were a lot more than 6 guys left on the hill. I don't have a complete WIA list. I'm not even sure who all exactly was up there. Me and Pearson did not send back everyone who was wounded. I would imagine there weren't many more than 6 who didn't have some type of wounds.
Some type of artillery shell/mortar went off behind me as I got up close to gun 3 (my hootch was just below Gun 3). I was unconscious for a while. I remember seeing Kellum and then trying to get down to gun 4.
Anyway, Iater that day when the mortar ammo dump exploded, Pearson and I went down to pull the guys out. The sitrep says 2 KIA 5 wia's The KIA's was higher than that. Here's a copy of some of the guys I recall being on the hill in January & February- by no means complete. Ranks and spellings probably wrong.
END
