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.

Hi my wonderful friend and brother.Yes we do have a very special tie and I cherish knowing you so much.
The people I have met in my life with the military, the veterans and those with the USO have all been the memories I will never forget.
Yes I did meet her, I was closer though to some others as my husband ( FallGuy here on FR), worked with some of the others in the films he did which was fun. Like Ann Margaret and some others he worked with as well. So we had met a lot of the same people when I met him the first time years later after Nam.
It is so great to see you.
(( hug ))

Nice to see you Nam Vet. "Gloating" is good for the last couple of days! Glad you could stop in and help us honor our troops and veterans. We well NEVER forget the sacrifices they have made, and are still making to keep us all free. And thank you for your service to our country.
