Week long sniper event in New Orleans.

Surprised they didn't use teargas or a grenade.

How is this so little known? Then again I was only 9 at the time so the evening news usually wasn't in my plans.

I was on the gun line in the Tonkin Gulf. Heard nothing about this on the Armed Forces Radio, which was about all we could listen to.

Remember it well. A buddy and I were traveling back to school from a trip to Alabama and got snowed in with my friend's sister in Atlanta for 2 days. This was all that was on TV.

Oh dear lord, that was almost painful to listen to. What the heck was that delivery about. That was like a Harry Shearer voiced character on the Simpsons.
