To all vets. Just a heads up: On or about Veterans Day this year watch Discovery channel for a special documentary film titled "In The Shaddow Of The Blade." This film features a group of Vietnam vets who restored a UH1H Huey helicopter that actually flew in Vietnam. They then took the helicopter on a trip across the country visiting selected veterans, helicopter crews, grunts, medics, nurses, even a "donut dollie" and telling their story of what the Huey meant to them. It is not a shoot-em-up war story. It is a story about people and how they were affected by the Huey.I know some of the vets involved (from my unit) and I had the chance to preview it with them at the reunion of the Vietnam Helicopter Pilot's Association on July 3. What an audience to watch it with! Not many dry eyes in the crowd of hundreds. DON"T MISS IT. Welcome Home Dave Bonifield

My husband, Jerry L. Piercy, was in Vietnam for two tours of duty. He was in an artillery unit. He was stationed at a LZ Sandy and I cannot remember anything else right now about his tour. He was there in Vietnam from January 1970 thru November 1970. Does his name ring a bell with anyone? He passed away from the effects of Agent Orange in May 2000. I'd like to hear from anyone who knew him over there.

USA 198th Light Inf. Brgd. Aviation Section, Chu Lia. Avionics and Door Gunner 1966-67?. The only place they had for us was in the middle of the ammo dump. They cleared out a small section and black topped it. That was our chopper pad. Lucky for us, we moved to the other end of the base before the TET offensive. The next morning after TET, nothing was left of our old pad.

I am writing you to bring to your attention of His Imperial Highness Prince Buu Chanh of Vietnam that has been living in the United States since being exiled from Vietnam in 1975.

Prince Buu Chanh is leading an organization called the Vietnamese Constitutional Monarchist League that is attempting to peacefully form a transitional government for Vietnam so a democratic dual party system can be possible under a Constitutional Monarchy to liberate the Vietnamese people, which King Sihanouk of Cambodia has succeeded with the help of the United Nations to mandate a democratic election and the people chose to form a Constitutional Monarchy Government in 1993.

His Imperial Highness Prince Buu Chanh of Vietnam was recently awarded The Republican Senatorial Medal of Freedom. The Republican Senatorial Medal of Freedom has also been awarded to Margaret Thatcher, Ronald Reagan and General Norman Schwarzkopf, which is the highest and most prestigious American decoration awarded to civilians.

Also attached to this letter is a website about Prince Buu Chanh containing information concerning his struggle to politically pressure the Communist Government in Vietnam, so that you may familiarize yourself with his campaign and notice that you both share common goals concerning the Liberty and Rights of the people of Vietnam.

Here is a link concerning Prince Buu Chanh's agenda:

Please let me know what is your position.

Thank you,

Dr. Carl Lindgren
Chancellor to Prince Nguyen Phuc Buu Chanh of Viet-Nam
