MAINTAINING A SMALL ANGLICO FORUM AT www.1anglico.org ANGLICO Marines and Sailors are welcome, and those who fought by our sides as well. Three Korean Marines are on board, as well as other US Marines and Corpsmen who were detached to the same units. Historians are welcome, basically anyone who is interested in ANGLICO history, especially those who can help to document it. Our official history is often not documented, or full of errors as our teams are detached to US and allied forces, and those who record the history are often far removed from the battlefield. It's up to us to set the record straight.

Our most loyal allies, Marines from Korea October-November 1967 An Hoa OP, mountain top near a very small village called An Hoa (not the one everyone knows about) west of Chu Lai.
First duty. Scared shitless. Got off helicopter, introduced myself to platoon Lt., then not knowing what to do next, inspected the perimeter. Found the wires cut to all the Claymores. (this was a sort of a CAP unit at this time) Reported this to the Lt. Some poor Korean private was blamed and I learned about Kkolobaga, a form of Korean discipline. Hands behind the back, forehead on the ground. Then they proceeded to beat him with an e-tool for hours. The cries kept on well after darkness fell.
I did the right thing, but I still feel awful about the results.
Sitting there with a stupid grin at the Recon platoon OP.
