Great site, it helped me a lot with my project about the Vietnam war (I’m doing a project about the movie “The Deer Hunter”, we’re investigating if the movie tells a story about Vietnam that’s really true. Thanks a lot

Dave, what a great web site you have. I stumbled across it and spent a good part of my day on it. I was with 2/8th Cav, 1st Cav Div. in ’68-69 in Tay Ninh Province as a grunt. I’ve got a few photos of the Black Virgin Mountain, too! I’ll share them with you if you want. Glad you made it home and kept your sense of humor! JIM

Your memories you have offered to others honor those who never came home. I never served in Vietnam, but chose to volunteer before the end. Sadly, images of two friends who, lacking financial resources for college, ended up being drafted and never returning to their parents and brothers and sisters still haunt me to this day. They stood and served their nation to the end, others did not, and so must be endlessly tormented by their personal act of shame. Thanks.

Hooah and welcome back home brother. I was doing some deeeeeeeeeeeprecon on RTOs for my new club at Yahoo. I came across this LZ. You got a great page here, well done. I was wondering if you could do a recon on http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/thewhipandprc I am lookin for Nam Vets who were RTOs or had experience with them or with radio equipment. My husband Steve was a Chief RTO serving 2 TODs in the Army Special Forces, and he was in Cambodia and Thai and other places where he was not supposed to be at. I noticed that there were not alot out there for RTOs so I created a club for you cool and elite people who really were the main eliment of the unit, the commo men who called in Arty as well as choppers for extractions and resupply. You were the ones who literally got your team members out of the shit. Good job here Dave…Keep up the good work.

Dave, Very much enjoyed your web site! Our lives are parallel in that I too got into R/C and got licenced in full-sized aviation in the early 70’s after spending a few years in the service, including a 13 month stint in RVN. I was in the I-Corp area (3rd MAW, 1st LAAMs) and also saw roughly the same Bob Hope show you saw when he brought it to DaNang. Thanks for the excerpt about the “Girl in the Photo” fraud. There is plenty of disinformation still floating around about Viet Nam, even this long after the war. I am a member of the SWPC and am thinking about aquiring a short wing of some sort after I retire in a about 5 years. I was a partner with a 1973 PA-28R-200 until I went overseas (Saudi Arabia) in 1996. Now, I just want to putter around the sky in a nice ragwing when I get home. Regards, Dan

Dave, Thanks for visiting my site and signing my guestbook. I’m glad you did, never would have known about your Excellent site, beyond impressive. There is no room for improvement. I didn’t have time to visit in one setting. Will have to come back. Your midi collection is awesome. I see by your resume where you got all the hits, and ability to do all of it. Congratulations on an awesome site. You ought to do a mirror site in Pentagon at Geocities, I can almost guarantee more recognition that you can imagine. Although you’re doing quite well where you are. I know all about the Tipsy-25, your outfit supported my Artillery Battalion at CuChi and probably TayNihn. 7/11thFA, OnTime,OnTarget. I was in Recon with C, 4/9th Manchus, but assigned to C,7/11FA.as FO. You must have missed that page. Keep in touch brother.

Spent some time On top of Nui Ba Den as well as close to your location. The top of the mountain at the time I was there was controled by the 5th Special Fources, although I heard they were wiped out about 2 weeks after I left there. I hevv similar pictures as the ones you have of the Black Virgen Mountain. as it was called when I was there. Stars and Stripes notes a visit by Martha Ray also at the time I was there and was lifted off of the mountain supposedly because we were under heavy attack. More info needed more info given.

The only memories I remembered the most are the images of the American soldiers carried me and others to transfer from a canoe to a US Navy cargo ship; and those who helped us to come here to America to have a life of freedom. Thank you.

I truly enjoyed your home page! I had an opportunity a few years back to purchase a TP, I wish now that I had done so. Again, nice home page and happy flying. P.S. I have been in Computer Science for 15 years and have developed a Logbook software package using Visual Basic as the engine. I’m trying to do an “informal” survey/marketing to see if there is interest among pilots for a low cost logbook package. If you have time and can reply, please let me know if this is a viable idea. I would be willing to offer 40 – 50 copies as beta test packages (free of course). Thanks again.
