| Taken along the Tuy Loan river between Cobb Bridge and Tugboat. It was in this general area where a booby trap would kill Ernine Martinez, Jack Lackey, Tom Root, and Doug Whiting on July 10, 1969. Doug Whiting is in the middle and probably Ed Espinoza with the walking stick. Jerry Sylvia may be the Marine on the left. He was killed in September 1969. |
