Mark Truhan and Bob Sparks on a PT-76 at Ben Het
Photograph courtesy of Mark Truhan

The photo is of the PT-76 that got hung up in our wire on 9 May and churned itself into the ground, and that I tried to blow up with a LAW. I'm sitting on the gun tube, my buddy Bob Sparks is sitting on the turret, and the three NVA crew, along with a few of their infantry buddies, are taking a dirt nap on the far side of the tank.
