I can't explain it, but this morning I have been preoccupied with my time in Vietnam. I arrived in Danang in June '69 at the age of 18. I thought about my 2nd night in country at Camp Tien Sha and the attack on a freighter in the habor. I remembered the time when the ammo dump was attacked and the sounds and smoke that lingered. I thought about the rocket attack one night on the inside of Marble Mountain, and how the dirt rained on my bunker. That was over 36 years ago,and yet it was just yesterday. I remembered the "Dear John" audio tape from my fiance, and the hurt I felt and carried for 22 years. After alot of alcohol for alot of years, I looked her up in NC in '91, went to see her and brought closure to that aspect of my experience. Today I will honor my Nam years, and put it away tomorrow. To my Nam brothers, thanks for letting me write this today.

I served in Vietnam with the 24th Trans Co in Cam Rahn Bay 68-69 and then with the HHC 223rd Avn Bn in Qui Nhon. The memories come flooding back more often than I like. I do like this page, I guess it's good to know my fears are not mine alone. Great page!

Several T-D-Y trips to Dong Ha in support of the Marines on the DMZ. Second tour was T-D-Y from Udorn Thailand to Da Nang & Dong Ha.

Harold Sens & I were the first EM on the roster for the 138th at it's inception - June 1966. Colors were retired in 1999 - Ft. Rucker Alabama - I think.
I think of the 138th often - - -
