I received a copy of my Marine Corps personnel file that I had requested to back up a benefits claim. I had to prove that I was in the Republic of Vietnam. One of the few records I gleaned from it showing presence in RVN was a record of completing the shotgun familarizaation course at a range called "MCAS, Chu Lai, RVN". I don't even remember ever shooting a shotgun in the Corps, but I recall shooting an M-16 out at the bomb dump. I wish I could recall what I shot.
