COSSON; Nha Be; LST Jennings County;
RD1 Cossin was my Boat Captin, then Patrol Officer, and thank God, A friend. I was Gunner's Mate (GMM 3RD then).
We lived in a large tent we (PBR Group) built on dredged sand in Nha Be VN Navy Base. We embarked aboard LST Jennings County
there. His death tore me up so bad I almost didn't cope with it. I'll always remember that smile he had for everyone.
