Bubba point man on his last patrol.
Bob Christopher was behind him carrying an M-60
then Two other SEALs whose names i am not sure of, I think one was Schwartz.
I was walking 5th. I had a CAR-15 with 60 rounds (double magazine).
When we got ambushed, "Bubba" hollered, "Rio, I am hit!" I ran up to get him and was shot in the leg. I went back and brought Chris to the rear.
I am proud Bubba was recognized by the USN for his action.
