Summary

[edit]
Description

"Who Takes Care of Marines in the Field? Marines! A Marine, victim of the intense heat of the Demilitarized Zone, is carried by another Marine during a sweep by Leathernecks of the 3d Marine Division. Units of the 4th Marines and 9th Marines were searching for North Vietnamese soldiers, weapons caches and bunkers. The Marine carried the heat victim to a landing zone, where Marine helicopters evacuated him to a nearby medical aid station (official USMC photo by Private First Class E. E. Hildreth)."
