Infantryman, 11B40, Squad Leader. 9 month tour in Vietnam in the I Corp. Some low land experience mostly highlands and Jungle. Was trained at Fort Ord and
Fort Benning, Georgia. Attended Non-Commissioned Officers Candidate School, NCOC at Fort Benning. The unofficial nick name for that school was fondly referred to as Shake and Bake School. In my opinion, it was a good school and served me well.
