Shaking Hands with the Enemy – Beneful Reads – MediumHe and his wife, Carol, traveled to Vietnam in 2010 after helping raise funds for a kindergarten school near the location of the final battle he fought in at Hill 950 when he airlifted the last remaining injured soldier, Roger Hill, from the ground. “Roger was defending a top-secret installation to intercept radio traffic along the Ho Chi Min Trail at Hill 950,” he says. “And when the outpost was overrun by the communists, we did what had to be done and medevac’d Roger out.”
