Episode description
Mary Ann was a small military facility on a hill in a remote part of South Vietnam.
I don’t know who gave it the name Mary Ann, but it was a firebase that supported infantry troops on the ground in nearby areas.
During my time in Vietnam, I served on several firebases with the 3/82 Artillery — Mary Ann, Crest, Baldy, Casey Jones, and Deja Vu. At least those were the names we gave them. The Army often referred to them as an LZ (Landing Zone) or just a number (something like Hill 191).
