"Doc" Wilkinson & Sgt. Markle

We were returning to Hill 65 after a days patrol along the Vu Gia River. This bomb-damaged bridge was
the last hurdle to be crossed on the way back to the hill. It was approximately 1 kilometer from the
base camp. This photo was taken on Christmas Day 1966.

John "Doc" Wilkinson, on the left, now lives in France with his wife and two grown children.

If you know Sgt. Markle or his whereabouts, please
email me
with the information.
