“Have you been reading anything in the paper about Hue? It is supposed to be big news in the states. Well that’s where I am. It is supposed to be some of the worst fighting that has been fought in the war. If it isn’t it will be plenty for me. I can’t really say how bad it has been. We’ve lost a hell of a lot of people. . . . This house to house fighting is a son of a bitch. I’ve never been so scared in all my life.”
