“That’s right...we need a dust-off...we have one seriously wounded, one KIA and several minor casualties...over.”

The Captain put down the radio and turned to one of the platoon leaders.

“Well...what happened?”

“Dunno Sir. Suddenly, out of nowhere it seemed, those two guys appeared. They were being chased by Charlie. It was their bad luck...they took fire from both of us. One guy got blown to pieces and cooked by the napalm...the other guy …..well he’s still alive. Not sure why or for how long.”

“Who were they?”

“ Americans Sir. Other than that we have no idea. They..like I say...they were pretty badly messed up and their dog tags, and other stuff, had been blown free...we found dogtags, hats, a boot, and some body parts scattered about..we put the dog tags back with the right bodies, we think. One set of the dog tags was pretty much melted by the Willie Peter. Can’t make out anything about it.”
