  2. Ambush At Thon Tham Khe. If you are interested I have photo of LtCol McQuown in helo en route to III MAF to account for “Badger Tooth”. Expression is telling. Have pix of sweep thru vil and stream where Lima stopped. Also have my personal recap given to CTF 76 that parallels “Ambush…” in many ways and notes warnings of potential conflict. Hindsight = 2020. Check Navy Beach Jumper web for pix of approach to Tham Khe
