Modern Day A Shau

From Bob Witt. "Doc Mcbride, Mike Sprayberry's medic at LZ Tiger, took these pictures on his return trip to Vietnam. He returned the A Shau to look for his unit's MIA's lost at Tiger. Doc fortunately survived serious wounds received on the road below Tiger on April 25, 1968. Mike Sprayberry received the MOH for going out that night to rescue Doc & the rest of his patrol. Their unit was on board for the first Combat Assault's into LZ Tiger."

Chinook is at the base of LZ Tiger April 1968.
It was shot down on 19 April 1968 during the initial assault into the A Shau. It came down over the top of Mike Dubberly (AC) and Bob Witt (CP) while they were picking up a shot down C model crew from D/227 in the valley at the base of LZ Tiger. Mike received the Silver Star.
