Dooley's dad, Charlie was with the rescue mission at the second day of the Battle of the Ia Drang. While a lot of us served, just a few were real heros.

He and the US forces did too good of a job, they were outstanding in their service to their country, duty and fellow soliders, Gap never would stand and fight mano y mano again, and went to the gorriile tactics which finaly just wore our country out, not the military mind you the country.
