I don't know what I don't know, but how do we know we didn't try? Had an instructor in Phase 1 in '69 that was a mean SOB ( I say this lovingly), a SFC with a Hispanic name that supposedly was with the team that tracked down and captured Che. Rumor was (you know how those are) that he had a bounty on his head in at least one Central/South American country, never heard why. Knew a few guys in my class that were caught by him in the middle of the night during E and E cutting across a corner of St. Mere Eglise DZ. He made them low crawl across the DZ with their rucks and weapons to teach them a critical lesson. Fatigues were shredded and knees and elbows in bad shape afterward for a few days. Have a couple more stories about him. He always got his lesson across. His nickname was Terrible Txxxxx.
