Chatter's WAR Experiences

Summer of 51 my regiment was about the 43 parallel in N Korea.
At night we were under heavy fire power. This went on for several days.
In the day time it was very quiet, wondering where all the resistance was coming from.
We sent out patrols. I was on patrol. We waded thru a rice patty and discovered a
bunker(CAVE). At this point we retreated back and reported the cave.
The next 2 days we carried boulders to lay in the rice patty. Then we
laid metal matting used for landing strips over the rocks.

        The next day 8 tanks with napalm in the turrets rolled across the patty.
Finding the bunker the tanks rolled up and emptied the napalm (fire)
into the bunker entrance,

That night we had no new firing on us.
The next morning we crossed the patty to the bunker.
Using back hoes opening up the bunker, we found 500 N Koreans dead.
Unburnt, the napalm took all the air and sufficated them.

Our regiment received a unit citation for this mission.
