From Mike Weaver
| The "Filthy Six," so named by Mike Weaver's younger brothers (8-10 years old) when they saw the picture. The movie, "The Dirty Dozen," had just come out and the picture put them in mind of the movie. This was taken on a patrol around Cobb Bridge. Mike told me they had stopped for a break and were just kicked back and taking it easy. Left to right in the rear: Bill Gauthier, Elgin Juri, unknown. In front: Bill Gravelle, Mike Weaver, Gary Shaw. |
From Jake Sphon
| The obligatory generic picture of Cobb Bridge. There must have been some kind of orders from Regiment that everyone who had a camera had to take a picture like this of Cobb Bridge. The little hootch in the bottom center was our 4-hole shithouse. It was conviently located for chatting with the villagers as they passed down the road. Really strange. Why not stick it off in a corner? Let a guy dump in peace. |
From Rik Pugh
| The end of another three day sweep. Tom Ferguson, Gus Mann, Freddie Weakee, Bill Yeager, Bob Fresquez. All but Mann were wounded and gone by September 1969. Though they all lived through Vietnam. |
