8 – The three APCs on the right were among the elements of the 11th Armored
Cav brought in to support the 3rd SPS inpreparation for the Tet Offensive of
’69. There was also at least one tank, not shown here. During the lengthy
rocket attack of the night of February 23rd, the tank crew members disobeyed
orders from Lt. Col. Fowle, our squadron commander, and fired their big gun
into the town of Biên Hòa.

9 - Later, Lt Col. Fowle ordered our LE troops to “beat senseless”
any troops apprehended from the 11th Armored Cav.

Here, US Army and SPs (in camouflage) mingle with 11thArmored Cav troops.
So far as I know, that order was never carried out.

10– US Army firepower from these Vulcans was awesome.
