These guys were doing it before most people even heard of it. The Sir and I think I know the guy that took that picture. Very nice sir.

No, no. You do have it, the pic is there and shows fine! I meant some people will not understand how that small a space can be called an LZ.

Well!!! We were at the top of the hill and all we needed was enough room for a slick to hover!! and a beeeg crew chief to pull us into the ship.
When they dropped the "mail" to us they couldn't land and llowered it to us.

I liked the combinati9on of being at the top of a hill and having a bag of grenades to roll down.

Try saving it with another file name.

Then you should be able to post it.

Thanks to alloya. I should have received a direct commission for this operation. We spent the better part of a day climbing the "hill" to find from Covey we were on another hill from what I thought. That is surely Lt material. Keep in mind that the maps of the AO sucked. Few were verified on the ground and they tended to show the topography of the canopy rather than what was under the canopy.
