THE BATTLE FOR FIRE SUPPORT BASE BURT A New Year's party we'll Never forget!


These pics are courtesy of "Dusty Lowe" (C-Btry 'base piece' at Burt), Bob Nigra, And MG (Ret.) Ken Simpson, who was the Btry XO of Charlie at the time. He spent the whole battle with Dusty and his crew. His contributions are the last 8 pics on this page. So, Thanks to all those generous Troopers for the GREAT PICS!
