Hi all
Maybe one of you could help me with this one; I (think I) remember seeing an ambulance vehicle during the Vietnam-war (I believe it was a m113 or m577) named ‘blood bath’. I thought I saw it in one of my books on the subject but as I can’t find it anymore, I might have seen it on the net. Does anyone know what I’m talking about and where I can find this picture?

Thanks very much,
Mark

The only think that I can think of in that line is a vague memory I have of reading an Osprey Vanguard, where there was a mention of a platoon of Australian M113s called 'Blood', 'Sweat' and '&Tears' after a 70s group. Think one of them was shown in the colour plates.

Can't remember anything about ambulances, but it's ages since I last looked.
