Sure those boys weren't Navy?

LOL. They helped!

Throughout the remainder of the night, Poling and Personnett strafed and rocketed muzzle flashes, directed Navy and ARVN artillery, and marked targets for the Navy A-7s that arrived on schedule at 6:30 a.m.

OH No! There was plenty of fighting by the brave and selfless workers and peasants raising up to overthrow the evil immoral corrupt puppet regime. And now thanks to their sacrifice the people of Viet-Nam are so much better.

ALL POWER TO THE WORKERS AND PEASANTS!

Ran across a story about one of ours made prisoner in that neighborhood who made it home.

Is it on the internet? It might make a good thread.

I had put in a request for extension of tour but a Chaplain of all things signed "no" on the chit.

Perhaps the Chaplain got that no from a "Higher Authority" who wanted you home. ;-)

Hiya radu. We're going to hit 90 again today, we've had quite a warm spell this week. Thank goodness it cools to the 50's and 60's at night and for the mornings.

Morning WaterDragon.

Very glad to see an account of actions by the extraordinary men who fought in Viet Nam, snippy.

Every chance I get because like you I believe they were, and are very extraordinary men!

Dumb Laws...
Lenior County Tennessee:
When you pull up to a stop sign you must fire a gun out the window to warn horse carriages that you are coming.

LOL. Hey radu, they still doing this in TN?
