I don't remember their names (can anyone help?), but I believe these are the two pilots, Yellow One, who received the Silver Star for going into a hot LZ five or more times. They had a least three ships shot up, but would not let any of the other pilots go in. They just traded ships.

We moved to a new location and were put in "buildings" with wooden floors and sides halfway up and screens the remainder of the way. The roof was tin.

In country long enough to grow a mustache but not long enough for R&R. My wife made me shave it off during R&R in Hawaii.
