Hi Brian: The story of Lt. Beaumont is taken from an event mentioned in my memoir, although the memoir ends when my feet touch American soil again. I am posting the second part this weekend.

I invite you to read the first chapter of my memoir for free at vietnamjerry.com NPR-SNAP JUDGMENT will broadcast a paranormal story from the memoir on October 22nd, just prior to Halloween. It is one of many events that would confront me and the the members of my Special Ops team during the missions I led. Nothing ever was what I thought it would be. Every assginment wend sideways and challenged our mortality. And yet, I survived, when 58,200 of my brothers died on the battlefields of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia.

Thanks again for you comment. I appreciate your support for my writing and remain with best regards.
