The man was my Assistant Platoon Commander in 3rd Platoon, SEAL Team TWO from January to December 1968. During that time we went to Army Ranger School together, led the platoon through various training events, then deployed with it on our first 6-month combat tour in Vietnam. We were the best of friends. I told Bubba's story in my chapter of "Hunters & Shooters" (ed. Fawcett; Morrow & Co; 1995). If anyone would like to learn more about him, please contact me. Rick Woolard
