FIGHTERS OF THE DELTA Vietnamese Rangers A Tough Outfit
In the Mekong delta the 400-man 22nd Ranger Battalion moves through flooded paddies in search of a Viet Cong hide-out. Battalion commander Maj Bui Van Huan defends the Rangers as patriots who will not let down, while American adviser Capt Latz notes their discipline and challenges about chicken theft reputations. Base pay is 2,500 piasters plus 300 for each death, with a commissary discount for food.
