5. I Will Never Forget Tet
I was in the Central Highlands, at a firebase located within a mile of where Laos, Cambodia, and South Viet Nam meet.

I was in an intelligence unit (NSA) and we knew it was comming. Everyone knew it was comming. We expected it to be a lot worse than it was, but none the less - that night I expected to die. I did not expect to die in any abstract sense. I expected to be either blown up or shot before the night was over, no more, no less.

I will never forget Tet.
