Air Assaults in Vietnam for Artillery Tactics John Gillroy, Tom Mintier and myself spent over two weeks in the Parrots Beak developing this story. In my opinion this was one of the best stories DASPO produced. When we walked into base camp after being out as long as we were soldiers moved away from us, I don't think we could have ever gotten dirtier. Our first mission was to find and secure new fatigues then take the longest shower of our life (and of course clean the camera gear). Incidentally John Gillroy who was most instrumental in producing this story was never acknowledged in the letters of appreciation from our own staff as Tom and I were from the chain of command starting with the Commandant US Army Field Artillery School, Major General Charles P. Brown. See back of book for letters. Vietnam the Parrots beak in 1969 Training fil for Ft Sill Artillery school Ted Acheson shooting Tom Mintier doing sound Still man on this job was Primeau
