I was speaking with a friend at work the other day and something he
said
kinda hit me between the eyes. He said he returned to the United
States
via troop ship. I know a lot of people went to Vietnam on troop
ships
mainly on unit deployments, but I didn't know some actually came
home
that way too. That sucks. I sailed on two troops ships - one from
Korea
in Dec 62 (USNS Gaffney) and one from Germany in April 66 (USNS
Darby). I came home twice on troop ships but flew back from Nam
both times.

If you returned via troop ship, what ship were you on and was it a
unit
returning to CONUS or were you manifested alone?? Also, what was
your port of entry to the United States?

I came back from Nam the first time via Continental Airlines 707
that
almost crashed after hitting one hell of a air pocket over the South
China
Sea (Jun 68) and the second time I hitched hiked via Utapao AFB
Thailand on a C-141 via Guam to Travis.
