Steve Carver

An officer shouldn't punch an enlisted man but Steve Carver relates the story of a Marine who was on the receiving end of just that. There was a fenced off swimming pool that was for officers only and the man had gone to extreme lengths to get in there. (Caution: strong language) (5:50)

It was near his time to rotate home but Steve Carver nearly got blown up by a bomb the VC had buried in the road. His jeep had driven right over it but it was the truck behind him that got hit. (Caution: strong language) (8:57)

It was the best shower of his life. When Steve Carver got to Okinawa after his 13 months in Vietnam, he was able to get a shower with actual hot water that didn't run out and no one telling him his time was up. Then it was really time to go home. (6:23)

Roger McGill

He grew up the son of Irish immigrants in Chicago. His father was a firefighter and served at the age of 37 during World War II, all of which gave Roger McGill a sense that service was a part of his life as well. When he was called, he responded and became a cavalry scout after his basic training. (8:05)

Anybody here know how to type? Roger McGill had just arrived as a new cavalry scout at the 25th Infantry Division. He knew how so he raised his hand but it wasn't long before he wanted out of that job. He talked the commander into making him the major's driver, a much better position. Then the unit received orders for Vietnam. (6:07)

Before Roger McGill even landed in Vietnam, he came under fire. That was on the deck of an LST making it's way upriver to Saigon. There, his cavalry unit unloaded the tanks and APCs and formed into a convoy. He was the major's driver and the two of them missed the departure. Which way did they go? (7:09)

At Cu Chi, the VC attacked nearly every night which meant that Roger McGill had to head to his foxhole. This could be a problem during the monsoon. He was the major's driver and bodyguard and they would often head out in an APC to join in the firefights. (5:25)

Roger McGill's cavalry unit fought alongside many other units in Vietnam as an augmenting force. They also made time for medical outreach to the locals and it was during these times that he befriended the children in one of the villages. One day, he noticed the children were keeping their distance. Something was wrong. (4:30)

They had no idea. The Americans had built their base at Cu Chi right on top of a vast network of tunnels. Why are guys getting killed inside the wire? Eventually, they figured it out and the reports from a tunnel rat sent down to explore astounded Roger McGill. (3:21)

The major told Roger McGill to have the jeep ready for a trip into Saigon. He asked to bring along a buddy for some company. No problem. They delivered the major to his meeting but he didn't come out until the late evening and he was three sheets to the wind. Let's go! But, sir, it's after dark. (6:56)
