We found the old mansion that the French were using as their base and were just starting to go inside when we were attacked by a large force of VC. Their RPGs took out Doc and Burke with the first shot. Koolakowski and I were able to get into the house and take cover. While Joe Kool returned fire I blew my VC whistle and called for retreat. My ruse worked and the VC fled in confusion. Unfortunately, their mortars were not confused and bombarded the house. The French troops ran out to kill the VC and we were able to get Sanchez (you owe me another one) and get out of the house with everybody. We had to hide in the jungle for a night to avoid the leftover VC. Sanchez was attacked by the French commander, but luckily for him I woke up in the middle of it. Just as I saw the spirit of the French sergeant enter Sanchez' body I ran over and whispered in his ear "La mission est sacrée. Protégez le manoir." The ghost left Sanchez' body and headed back to the mansion (that’s three). The next morning we made it back to camp. Pfc. Burke later died in the hospital. Doc will be okay in a few weeks.-Jack Johnson</blockquote>
