When did Neil Brinkerhoff lose an eye?
May 17th, 1970. There were two contacts that day - one mid morning and one early afternoon. Steve Smith was wounded in the first contact and another man injured his back running toward the contact. The journal is probably in error as it identified the man who injured his back as Chuck Kerr. Chuck advised that it was definitely not him. The man's line number was #96 so he was a low-ranking person and perhaps new. Bill Clous was wounded in the afternoon and was medevac'd. Steve would like to know who went up with him in the basket after the first contact? Earlier, we thought it may have been Paul rosenberg but Rosenberg left country in March, 1970. About three hours separated the two medevacs.
May 23, 1970. According to the battalion journal, there were 5 KIA and 22 WIA on Firebase Kathryn. How was Alan Gross Killed? See the guestbook for June 16, 2010 which probably answers the question.
Clarification is needed about March 10, 1970 when Byron Richard was killed.

Paul Skaggs made a video of a slide show (35mm carousel) of photos that he had from Charlie Company. Does anyone have contact with Paul to get copies of this photos?
