Two medics came up to get him as the Third Platoon threw out cover fire in the direction the shots had come from. Fire team chief Sgt. Rodney Namauu of Hilo had his men rake a tree-line with rifle fire and M-79 n-launched grenades with unknown results.

"Most of the men really don't understand what they are doing here," Bode said with a shrug of his bulky shoulders. "I try to explain it as best I can. But the truth is that most of them have never even seen a Charlie (VC)." Still, the Golden Dragons keep going. They've got a year to serve in Viet Nam and it doesn't the Golden Dragons have been ordered. Fighting VC are scarce.

Snipers are not. We sat down to eat. There was hot roast beef flown in from the base camp at Cu Chi. There was plenty of shade, too. Then the old story.

First there were four-sniper shots that sent some of us diving, food and all, behind the closest cover. USUALLY, there's no need to duck because the sniper already has picked his target, and if you don't feel the bullet hit you, you're probably safe. This day, the sniper had PFC Douglas Pagett in his sights. One bullet creased Pagett's helmet, another hit him in the thigh. do much good to complain.

ONCE, Capt. McQuil-len watched as a recon jeep in front of him hit a mine and hurled the occupants high in- the air. None of them was seriously injured. "It's going to be a long grind," is aU he said. Troops that feel like chucking it all and asking for a transfer to another outfit get a healthy morale boost, however, when they think of their wounded medic, Lyle.

Lying in a hospital here with one leg amputated and the other in bad shape, Lyle told Sgt. Bode during a recent visit: "If I can just hop around on this one stump, I want to get back with my platoon." i If' 4 By BOB JONES TRANG BANG, Viet Nam They wore dirty uniforms and had muddy feet, and most of them smeiied bad. They had more hard luck and bad breaks in 30 days than most units here experience in months. The 2nd Battalion of the 14th Infantry, known at Schofield Barracks as the "Golden Dragons," has come a long, hard way since the days of training in the Koolaus when the bullets weren't real. I was standing near a perimeter foxhole talking to SFC.

Robert R. Bode (of 91-972 Komana Ewa Beach) when an artillery registration round came crashing into the bamboo. A PIECE of shrapnel sliced through one man's combat boot and imbedded itself in his toe. Other bits went sailing through the aid station tent. Nobody flinched.

Especially not platoon Sergeant Bode. He once lost four men out of a squad when a friendly mortar round landed on his patrolling men and he's learned to take the mistakes with the same calm that he takes the successes. i 5 -'V 4 The bad breaks have kept plaguing Bode ever since he got in the war the first week of May. Just a day earlier, his company commander, Capt. William G.

Nor-berg of Providence, R.I., died along with a PFC when a mine went off. THEN ONE of the outfit's best medics, PFC Thomas Lyle, got hit with a grenade and lost a leg. Bode had to go looking for another doc to nurse his Third Platoon. With a new company commander, they picked up and went back out on patrol. A single burst from a VC automatic rifle killed the newest man in the company.

There was some argument whether the dead soldier 's name was Oland, or Orland. Finally it was decided that his name was misspelled on his uniform and his right name was Oland, David, Specialist Fourth Class. Cause of death: a bullet through the heart. 1st Lt. John Otjen.

the Third Platoon leader, has a hole in his M-16 rifle where a slug hit. In fact, almost everyone has some memento of the war against invisible guerrillas. "When we lost somebody in the platoon, it's just another day's business," Bode said. "Like going to chow or anything else. The men don't worry about it much anymore." THE NEW Company A CO, Capt.

George Mc-Quillen (his brother is with the 35th Infantry of the 25th Division at Plei-ku), is a little frustrated with the way the war has been going, but he doesn't let the men know it. "These boys just go and go," he said. "Then they see two good men blown to bits and there's nobody to shoot back at. What they need is a good victory, to kill about 40 or 50 VC."

Well folks, here it is againl The good old summertime. No chool picnics, coeds, camping, coeds, trips to foreign places, more coeds. All these happy carefree days should be recorded on film for future enjoyment. For picnics and family gather 98 my boat. He had the wheel.

After we got out of the harbor and had a chance to rest he asked me if I'd take the wheel. He'd got a splinter in his foot. The splinter must have been half an inch long and he didn't say a word all the while we were working out of the harbor." Shipbuilder Al Ferguson was at his work bench at Ala Wai Marine when I asked him about Woyshner. "He was a real professional." said Ferguson. "One of the few around.

He never asked for any publicity. Took pride in his work. Never made any money at it. But he loved sailing so what could he do? Take an eight hour a day job? That doesn't leave you much time for sailing. "So he did whatever he could do to keep sailing, mostly ferrying boats around.

"He told me a couple of different stories about how he started. One of them was that he was a bait boy on a charter fishing boat in Florida in his teens. "He was a hard guy to get to know. A loner. Talk to 10 different people and you'll get 10 different stories about him.

I've known him quite a while, and sailed with him, too. "The consensus here at the Yacht Harbor is that it's a shame to label a man a hard-luck skipper the way Leo has been. "He's made two voyages from New Zealand alone, a great feat. He's sailed many voyages from here to California, often alone. He sailed the asman Sea solo which is a phenomenal feat.

'Hard luck skipper' is a hell of an epitaph for a man who sailed as well as Leo did." Single Schwinn STING RAY ffJ 5595 By BOB KRAUSS Leo Woyshner was about fi feet, inches tall, quiet, good-looking, a pipe smoker. He made his way easily among the tall-masted yachts because he had been a deep water sailor for 15 years, competent, resourceful, a loner, a rolling stone, one of a rare breed. Yesterday the men who had sailed with him read his strange epitaph. They learned of his death Thursday when the 29-foot sloop. Splendid, put into port after a voyage from California.

Two crew members, Edward K. Gray and William F. Jarrell, said Woyshner, 33, apparently went berserk two days out of Honolulu, jumped overboard and disappeared. A Coast Guard spokesman said yesterday an investigation has revealed no indication of foul play and that the FBI has been so advised. But on the waterfront the ghost of Leo Woyshner continued to walk as his friends recalled details of his life as unusual as those of his death.

Ross Pepper, who lives aboard his trimaran, Lodestar, is working for an advanced degree in psychology at the University of Hawaii. He was filling two water containers yesterday when I asked him about Woyshner. "He was tall, kinda quiet," said Pepper. "He knew everything you need to know to work on a yacht. People would hire him to sail their yachts.

Or he would buy a yacht and try to sell it somewhere else. "When he was sailing from here he'd usually stick a sign up, 'Going to on the yacht. If nobody showed up, he'd go alone. It never seemed to bother him. He was an experienced sailor.

"Everybody's got all kinds of theories about what happened out there. Who's to say? A lot of things can happen psychologically when you bang your head as he apparently did on the mast. "But Leo wasn't the despondent type. He w-as quite carefree and competent. He seemed very well adjusted.

Really, a likable guy." Douglas Parker, a Pearl Harbor worker, was painting his boat, Rowana, when I came aboard. "He was real easy going," said Parker. "Just to give you an example, he chopped the ends off three of his fingers once while he was planing in the shop. It didn't bother him. He just laughed.

"I was reading the paper this morning (about how Woyshner went berserk) and I don't know. He's sailed so often alone it's hard to visualize him going off the deep end. He was a pretty resourceful guy. "And a good sailor.

Isn't this a good de ings, your normal or 50mm lens in sufficient in most cases.

On trips abroad or camping, a telephoto and wide-angle lens is a must. Especially in Europe where Cathedrals seem to abound, the wide-angle lens comes in real handy in order to get the whole structure in the picture. Nature, of course, usually abounds near camping grounds and most of it is happily wild by instinct. A telephoto of about 200mm will enable you to get a picture of a purple sapsucker without disturbing same. Now we are not saying that coeds who are going to be in "bountiful" numbers at our Waikiki basking grounds ore wild by instinct, but again a 200mm lens sure comes in handy.
