Thanks Gil. I flew up to Dak Pek once and spent the night. The camp was built on 7 hills in the vale. The Yards had been tunneling for 4 years - you'd follow a tunnel and suddenly come upon a .50 cal overlooking the valley through a slit. Jack kept a .45 in his commo bunk to fire at cat sized rats. As far as I know we didn't have any shotguns at my A camp A-233, Ban Don, on my first tour 1966-67. But Dak Pek was a world unto itself.

Jack is an expert on Randall knives (he posts on Randall boards as "jacknola") and an advocate of big caliber military rifles, specifically the M-1 Garand.
