Ron; Oops...In the previous post my mind confused my fingers I think...I was trying to say "(reading left-to-right)"...sorry about that! PS; How many remember that 8-inch round, golden-yellow, thing usually painted onto the center-front Duster's door only, that had I think the number '23' or '25' inside of it? I believe it was information that a sentry at a (floating) bridge was supposed to read, and then calculate quickly to determine how much space he should provide between vehicles in a convoy etc. so the bridge and vehicles weren't sunk! We crossed two of these type bridges in the lowlands north of Hue, when our Battalion first got in-country. Before that, we were delayed for two days at Phu Bai waiting for the Engineers to put one of them back in place, because the VC cut one end of it free and it had floated downstream.
