Doctor cuts fuse from Marine during Vietnam bunker operation
Lieutenant Edward Feldman aided by a Marine engineer and two Navy corpsmen performed a flashlight assisted surgery to remove a six inch mortar fuse embedded in the stomach of Marine Robert Mussari amid an enemy attack at a sandbag barrier in Khe Sanh South Vietnam. Mussari survived the procedure as Feldman described risks of triggering the fuse and the team worked under fire.
