WO2 John Vincent served with the Montagnards when in Vietnam. John can not recall the photograph being taken but remembers that things were pretty grim at the time and he was glad to be alive. John recalls that the Montagnards saved his skin on two or three occasions.
Far left was the Montagnard Company Commander, the next was John's radio man and on the right of John is his bodyguard. John stated that "They are the most loyal soldiers I have ever worked with."
