For five days, he hopped from Bien Hoa to Nha Trang, Cam Ranh Bay, Qui Nhon and An Khe. "Fantastic! Marvelous!" he would exclaim, using his two favorite words as he moved from base installation to command post to hill lookout sketching all the while. At one point a helicopter almost landed on half a dozen of his drawings spread out on the grass. "Please, please!" Koerner shouted at the whirling chopper Save...
