ED; try my uncle; I believe he was leading or was with the patrol who found 
those men (mortarmen?). He doesn't use a Puter so you'll have to call or 
write him for confirmatiom. His vitals are:; george Carter; Jr.; 27 Marlow 
Dr.; # C; Marlow; OK; 73055.; also; I remember the "Artificial Moonlight " 
quite well.  It worked well when we wanted it (Ambush Patrols; etc) and 
wasn't worth a damn when we DIDN"T want it (our patrols moving about; etc). 
 All in all it was another + advantage we had over the Chinks at that 
particular time.Have a good 'un and dodge the shoot-out strays!!!!!  Bill
