The Hill - Continued


The saddle between India and Mike Company.
The antenna on India's COC can be seen top left.  
Fake antenna - spoof, really, on AFVN's "Chicken Man", who had the famous "Good Morning, Vietnam" call made famous in the movie.  Note the chicken.
Radioman running for cover across "hot zone" on India's hill.  Probably just heard the awful word "INCOMING!".  Probably a Helicopter Support Team (HST) radioman.

"Bunny Holes"


The Warriors endured 113 days devoid of any living or sleeping areas above ground.  They dug holes into the rear of their trenches, reinforced the top with anything available, and lived in what became known as 'bunny holes.'
Upper body hidden behind poncho to keep the light out.  You make the best of what you have!
