Posing for Benavidez Battle Sculpture. Left Picture above.
Special Forces Vietnam War veteran Eugene Pugh (left) traps the bayonet of attacking NVA soldier in the crook of his arm, perhaps in the manner that Roy Benavidez did it in the last minutes of his "Six Hours in Hell." Gene was dressed in the very uniform and boots that he wore on special operations missions in Laos during the Vietnam War. He is holding the same Marine K-Bar knife that he once defended himself with in hand to hand combat in Vietnam. The NVA soldier, played by a refugee from Montagnard who was a young boy at the time of the Benavidez incident, is dressed entirely in authentic NVA or Viet Cong uniforms and equipment.
