The children dodged many used condoms, tampons and dead animals floating in the river. Many of them were treated for chemical burns and needed decontamination by the 2037th chemical battalion upon exiting the water.

I was there (1st Cav CCq)in 61-63. Wasn't much different, though some of the names were different. Crossed Libby Bridge every day on way to job on Op. 191.
