Hi Mr.M, thank you for this about the Thunderbolt.Good to see you.
This time of year I always miss Chicago, the holidays coming up and being in Chicago from Thanksgiving and Christmas time.I always remember the best store window displays there as a little girl.
Hi there Sweet Bunny and all my Buds. My youngest son was just questioning me AGAIN about Vietnam and I started to tell him (again) about the USO Shows. Naturally now that he's in bed, I had to stop in here and say hi. I've been very busy gloating the last couple of days. heh heh ... Anyway, I told him how dear Bob Hope and his gang of marauders were to me. I was always so far out that all I could do was hear them on AFVN. But then I remembered Cris Noel. She actually visited us near the Cambodian border. I think it was in '68. In you profile, which I just reread, I see that you did meet her in your travels. Are you still in touch by chance?
If you are, tell her that I still remember her visit to An Thoi and will always appreciate the risks she took. She's one class act, just like you. I'd STILL have her pic if my first ex-wife didn't tear it up. LOL .. As if THIS ugly dude had her as a girlfriend. Anyway, y'all take good care. We are in a band of brothers and sisters that I will cherish 'till the day I die. Let's never forget to support all those who are earning their membership as we sit at home warm and comfy. May God bless each and every one of you and them every day. If any brave members of our forces happen to read these lines, just KNOW we are always here and will never abandon you.
