Tony was a door gunner in the Air Cav on a Huey that took a direct hit from a SAM. I can still close my eyes and see them when we graduated in 1960- we all enlisted as we knew we would be drafted sooner or later. I won't get political in this sector, but Bro Romig has the exact co-ordinates- we were sold out by LBJ and that Ford bean counter McNamara. You don't win wars or conflicts by "micro-managing" troops, you win them the way Gen Patton explained in no uncertain terms to his troops and officers--

My two best friends are gone forever- maybe we'll hoist a few in the next life- and 58286 KIA and countless MIA's are the legacy- they died and that traitor Hanoi Jane Fonda is still alive and doing fine I hear. God sure has a strange sense of humor I guess- Semper Fi!!
