I carried a pistol and rifle for a while plus a lot of other stuff. We traveled relatively light, but all that weight adds up. Sometimes I had a modified S&W M60, but not always. The .45 and ammo was just needless and bulky. Moving through heavy brush was a chore. From about noon til 2, everybody took a break "POK Time." Similar to a Siesta. We only had 2 Americans and 10-50 CIDG troops on our operations. We'd spend just a week out of camp and then rotate back Team members took turns. I spent 16 months in the same A Camp. A-341. Cambodia on 2 sides a couple kliks.
