D-R, as I tried to say in my second book, nobody comes home from war unchanged.
In my case, that year made me what I am today, be that better or not. There were years when it was definitely not. Writing the books cured that. I hope so. Regardless, there are few days when some sight, some sound, some smell does not burst back and there I am over Cambodia again. It will never end until I do.

God bless you guys. Rocky, I did read an article that was on my news app today, about it being the date that our last troops left Vietnam, in 1973. I cannot even fathom what any of you guys went through, in any war, but especially Vietnam. Oakie

Had my VA doc appointment today and also received a VA email later this afternoon, doc didn't mention it, the VA email said it was the 50th anniversary... I served at the tail end of the era and got the benefits, but did not serve in combat, God bless those that did.
Edit: oh and 4205raymond RIP Calvin, doubt there is a relationship but we share the same last name.

Well, I had a free cheeseburger at the American Legion today. I lost a classmate flying B-66's there. My first flight there was in 1965. We had to make a three engine take-off at Quin Yonn. No maintenance facilities there.

I commended and congratulated the three remaining friends I served with. It has been 50 years since the last of us departed "The Pearl Of The Orient". Were we ever snookered.
