I remember

When this happened on the Cua Dai river. I was not on patrol that day, but was back at the base. My boss, Steve Jones, had touching exchange with the family. Went back to the river 2 yrs ago to where I think the ambush happened. Jackson was a good man to serve with. (Ltjg) Jim Holman. Tried to attach copy of service memorial we had in VN for Jackson, but could not.
