(AP Wirephoto) Viet Cong Bullet W ounds Houstonian By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Lance Cpl. John L. Burton, a Texan at war, was walking the point out in front of his company when Viet Cong struck from three sides. The first time he was lucky. They missed. Burton, a 21-year-old Marine from Houston, ducked for cover and, with help from other men in the company, chased the enemy off. A few minutes later Burton was leading his company across some rice paddies in a valley in the Chu Lai area, and the Viet Cong- struck again. A ricocheting bullet tore into his right hip. It was a jagged bullet and left a bad wound. It knocked him down and he lay there a few minutes before some hospital corpsmen could pull him back to safety and patch him up. Burton had been scared before, but for some reason he was not this time. “I don’t know why,” he said. “I just wasn’t. I don’t know how I really felt.” He joined the Marine Corpsii May 1966, and was in Vietmi five months before being woundd He is the son of Mr. and Mrs Joe H. Burton, of Houston.
