One night while working southwest of Hill 4-11, 2nd Platoon had multiple tripflares to go off. Immediately, they saw several figures running to their front in a seemingly crouched-down position. They opened fire and managed to kill two wild pigs. Gary is sure they hit a couple of others because there were so many. The RFs/PFs from Tu My Village (Tin Village) were notified, and they showed up the first thing in the morning to take the pigs away.
