Thanks for the update.

It was a beautiful area in 1969.

Flew in there twice while moving troops and stuff for the SF camp located there.

If memory serves, there was a french owned bar downtown, actually went in and had a 33.

Really curious, there was a small base px there, where I purchased the Abbey Road album!

If I ever go back for a visit, it will likely be my destination.

33 is now 333 and it is a standard Bud type beer that is quite consistent from can to can or bottle to bottle, not like it was in 69. I was at TSN and Pleiku in 68-69. My friends always insist on stocking up on Tiger beer when I come. I hate that. It is indistinguishable, at least to me, from Saigon beer or 333 and costs a lot more. I don’t like them spending money on me but it is bad form altogether to protest and I give it all back in one form or another, anyway.
