I will not forget the Thanksgiving and Christmas of 1967. We had a feast of turkey and all the trimmings in the jungle North West of Siagon. Christmas was at Zi An our company area. We had a couple Generals eat with us. We even had wine. The KPs had a white towel over their arms and that was the fanciest meal I ever had in the military. Bob Hope had his show not far away but I was not chosen to go.

A couple weeks later we observed the celebration of the Chinese new year, Tet 1968.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!!
