AllAmericanFiveRadio ::: Favorites I was there TDY in April 1968, Tan Son Nhut Air Base, Air Man. Things would be very slow and then all of a sudden unbelievable fast. When the base got hit, usually late at night, I still vividly remember dogging incoming mortars as the C130 ZigZaged down the runway as fast as possible. It was amazing to see all the tracers coming up to the aircraft. I have no idea where we would landed most of the time. It could have been Camron Bay or a wide spot, the plane is remarkable. I remember. 07-08-28 20:39:30 __________________________________________________

Jibbie49 ::: Favorites I remember because three boys from my class of 1967 died there in 1969. I knew three other boys who died there. I think about them everyday, as it was a worthless war. Now everything we buy is MADE IN CHINA and we are making the Communist rich. 07-08-05 01:54:54 __________________________________________________
nautilus44 ::: Favorites I think this is a great video,my Uncle Phil used to send home the same kind,when I was a kid.He never shot any 8mm in the field ethier but I can understand why.I don't understand your last comment about no one remembering,I remember and so do countless thousands that had beloved ones in the war.This was a great video and the narrative made it that much better.I wish Uncle phil was here to narrate my vcs copy of those old super 8's,Good job,Joe 07-07-30 20:41:51 __________________________________________________
