Comments: My Father was Exec Officer..Baker Battery..George Company..58th Field Artillery..65th Infantry Regiment..FO attached 3rd Infantry Division. He is now 84 years of age and failing fast. He was awarded the Bronze Star for his actions during the Battle of The Outposts. He seems to recount but cannot remember the specifics of Outposts Tom Dick and Harry..Christmas Hill..Star Hill..the Chorwan Valley. However...he still remembers Counter-Battery Fire..."Time on Target Fire For Effect" He still refers to the enemy as "chinks"...and still loves the VT fuse!
