Ground Casualty
At 1:11 AM on January 21, 1970, an explosion caused by an enemy mine occurred at the Advanced Tactical Support Base at Go Dau on the Vam Co Dong River. The mine detonated between the galley AMMI pontoon barge and an Armed Troop Carrier 36 (ATC-36). The blast completely demolished the galley AMMI and caused the ATC to sink in three minutes. Of the six U.S. Navy crewmen aboard the ATC, four escaped. Two men, BM3 Ronald S. Athanasiou and ENFN James C. Baumer, were below decks at the time of the explosion. They were killed in the incident. Of the four that escaped, three were slightly wounded. Enemy casualties are unknown. [Taken from coffeltdatabase.org]
