ROTFLOL, The guy says it was to noisy to know what was happening but it happened the the past. Was it always to noisy in the past to know what was really happening. The boats don't know what's happening and hear nothing. The boat had no new holes or damage. "I had no reason to doubt that we were under fire (that day) because it had always happened that way before." now that is definitive. LOL.... kevie are really that stupid are are you really that stupid. I posted a couple of paragraphs of direct testimony of what did happen. They also show Lambert does not give a definit witness to enemy fire. Lambert, 64, acknowledged that he can't prove the U.S. boats came under enemy fire because he and other sailors started firing .50-caliber machine guns into the jungle immediately after one vessel hit a mine. The noise of the mine's explosion, the shooting and the screaming boat engines made it unclear exactly what was happening. He said, however, that enemy soldiers frequently stopped Swift boats in South Vietnam with water-borne mines. The guerrillas typically followed the explosions by ambushing disabled boats from the riversides. "Under all other occasions when this sort of thing happened, we were taking small arms fire," said Lambert, who received a Purple Heart for being wounded in Vietnam and retired from the Navy with 22 years of service. "I had no reason to doubt that we were under fire (that day) because it had always happened that way before."
