I was there that day in a hotel with the rest of my MTT (10th Group) just north of Beirut. Our windows moved from the blast. The decision was made later that day for us to move into the mountains and live in tents, which we did for a couple of months. We had just spent time the week prior with those Marines having them use our firing range in the mountains and rub shoulders with them with the hope that we could snake some supplies from them in the future. Those poor guys were not allowed to have mags in their guns because it looked too "aggressive" for a peace-keeping mission. What a terrible waste of life.
