A short tale, inspired by Button badge.
As they run to their next position by a wall in Hue a peoples Liberation fighter sees his Comrade mown down, but escapes himself to his new position.
A bunch of Marines one wounded by the VC take a breather whilst a Corpsman helps their Buddy.
The guy on the left says to the one trying to locate Sniper fire. "Give it a rest won't you !" who just laughs. Next to him the guy with the AK47 which he has taken off the dead VC girl, says to the Corpsman in a southern drawl "Hey Doc, I got me a fine piece here ". Doc just says Yeah and gets on with his work.
A mule that has brought up more Ammo takes the wounded Marine away.
The Marines their brief rest over, get back to the work in hand.
