This is to advise you as to the status of your new school bus. As you probably know Superior Coach Corp. has just concluded an unauthorized strike by Lh.eir employees. We were informed two days ago that the men had resumed work.

This strike lasted almost six weeks. As a. result production is overamonthbehind. Superiorhadscheduled an end to 1966 pro­duction about Nov. 1st and a start of 1967 by Dec: 1st. Your bus has been scheduled as one of the first 1967 mode~s. Be­cause of the work stoppage 1967 production will not begin until approximately Jan. 1st. This means that your bus should be ready somewhere near the end of January.

We are very sorry that such a delay has occured but there is nothingwe can do about it except to hope that you and. your board wi.ll understand and bear with us.

The weather finally cleared on the 2nd of Jan. and we were in-serted just north of the Song Tra Bong river. We were to ob­serve the valley for four days for any V. C. movement. It turned out to be a pretty " routine" patrol , if there is such a thing. The weather didn' t stay clear for long and about two houi·s after we .landed it started raining again •. By then we had reached a fairly good spot to 0. P. frol!', a tree on the edge of a 1000 lb. bomb crater. The ground fog and rain.prevented us from seeing much. It turned cold (for here) and miserable and our harbor site was pretty muddy but it wasn't too bad.

We had planned on spending four days out, had packed for five and expected to spend six, which is the way it usually works out in the monsoon season. But, this time we were surprised and were extracted after three days.

We s pent two days back in the Bn. area drying out. It is al­mostexpected during the monsoon season that a large percentage of the troops will have immersion foot , You can change socks twice a day and powder your feet each time but they never get really dry. We had about 50% mild immersion foot in the PLT. when we got in. A hot shower and running around in shower shoes and sneakers for a couple of days normally puts you back in shape.

Went back out on the 7th of Jan. This time to the south of the same river and \!alley. The helo. pilots gave us a break on this insertion. We had picked an H. L. Z. behind and to the south of the hill but they found a bomb crater near the top and sat down there. It saved us a couple of thousand meters hiking, and in the jungle that can sometimes mean sL'< to eight hours.

By late afternoon we had set up our (OP) and harbor site, again on the edge of a bomb crater. The entire hill mass had been hit with a B-52 strike several months ago when it was reported to be a V. C. training area. It was a real fine (OP) and we had an excellent view of the valley. There were several villes (villages) at the base of the hill and they extended all the way north to the river. There was a lot of movement and people working the pad­dies but we had no sighting ot V . C. There was too much activ­ity by the Arvins to allow Charlie to run around in the open.

There is an Arvin (OP) to our East and a Special Forces camp to the West vf where we were and they were both busy. The Ar­vin {OP) was calling in artillery for the first two days and nights we were there and the people from the Special Forces camp made a sweep of the valley on the third and fourth days. we had a ring-side seat to the whole show. We thought we had a V. C. check point spotted the first two days and it turned out to be correct. During the sweep the Viet':>. from the Special Forces camp burned the houses in that area.

We also had a surprise on this patrol. we were scheduled for three days, packed for four ·and stayed for six. (weather again) It was fairly clear where we were, in fact the sun broke through

LETTER FROM VIETNAM Cont'd from Page 11 bunch of lean, mean Recon. Marines. It has been a real pleas­ure to serve with them. Well enough of this. I must be getting sentimental in my old age.

I received the newspaper clipping yesterday. Seems funny to see your letter in print but I got a charge out of it. Lt. Murray really liked it and wanted to know if you could get another copy for him. I have already told Barbara about it so I will send her the one I have.

Well, better close off here and start hustling around. Have a Recon. flight tomorrow and go out on the 24th for the last one (No. 27). Take care now and see you later.

Lt. Darrell T. Stevens, 097973 Co. "D" 1 st. Recon. Bn. 1 st. Marine Div . . FMF F Po. San Francisco, Calif.
