My Only Patrol
by Robert Tracy

Now, this is a long story, aye?

I got shot at once during my 12 and 20 (from late November 69 to December 70) with H&S Co., 1st M.P. Bn.  It was on a patrol to weed out AWOL Marines shacked up with whores in what I recall was a place called "Dog Patch".  We all thought at the time it was just one of those low life "Marines" who took a single shot at us, and then went back to fucking the chick.  Well, thanks to Sekou Shepard who sent me the declassified documents pertaining to 1st M.P. Bn., now I know my recollection was pretty accurate.
