In Flanders Fields
By: Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-1918) Canadian Army "In Flanders Fields the poppies blow Between the crosses row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields." Saepe Expertus, Semper Fidelis, Fratres Aeterni |

More information about the exploits of 2/9 in Afghanistan. Copy and paste into your web browser:
http://www.tulsaworld.com/site/articlepath.aspx?articleid=20101025_13_A3_CUTLIN399320 I would hope that anyone who sees updated information about units, ships or aircraft which participated in the S.S. Mayaguez rescue would post links for us to follow. I think it is important for us to understand and realize that The Battle of Koh Tang was not the end of existence for these organizations. Every where life is full of heroism, and our dynamic world is unfolding as it should. We should not only remember the past, but should also consider the forces which guide our future.

A response for post 194. I know of two Navy mechanics who repaired a helicopter that morning. Its the one mentioned in Guilmartins book. They hacksawed out a fuel or hydraulic line and replaced it with some hose. Not sure what else they did. I was up there earlier in the morning but the chopper we saw was shot full of holes but no maintenance required. One was a younger jet mech (E-3 I think). from the airframe shop of VA-95 (A-6s from the Coral Sea). I can't recall his name just yet. The other I did not personaly know but I believe he was a 2nd Class Petty Officer from VF-51's airframe shop the F-4 outfit onboard the Coral Sea. To long ago to remember clearly.
