We were coming from Hawaii, most of us were wearing jungle boots, and we were only carrying one sleeping bag for every three guys. Good times.

It might not have been the absolute suckiest time in the field, but it definitely wasn't the best.
We were the "SOCCE" Team, had a wild time on infil threading our way on foot between the OPFOR shooting Stingers at the Rangers. With the weather being TU, the bad guys disappeared, so we split into thirds and had eyes and fire missions on both DZs when the OPFOR jumped in. Best part time job ever.
