"When we scrambled from the pad, the forward air controller (FAC) reported that he had spotted one huge motorized sampen and several smaller sampans docked along an east-west canal," Moore said.
"We dropped our bombs in singles and the FAC made an adjustment after our second pass," he continued. "On Campbell's final bomb run, he scored a direct hit on the big sampan."
After we had exhausted our bomb supply, the FAC had us make a couple long strafe runs along the canal," Moore concluded.
In addition to the large sampan, the FAC reported that Moore and Campbell had destroyed five smaller motorized sampans, four fortifications and two bunkers and damaged three sampans and seven fortifications.
