Welcome Home
I had one Aussie buddy and I don't know his name. We were patients in the 24th Evac in Long Binh in June of 1969. He was in the bed next to me. His APC had hit a mine and he had been temporarily blinded. We played Monopoly and I was amazed at how he could keep up with what was going on without seeing the game. I remember going to a movie at the hospital with him. It was the Beatle's Yellow Submarine. It was hilarious trying to explain to him what was going on in that movie. Blue Meanies? You will never know how grateful we Americans were for the Aussies and Kiwis. Welcome home, buddy. Tell your friends they are more than welcome here and we would love to talk to them.
PHO 127: Just get DMZ-LT to send me your hide when you died, Clyde, and I'll try. Fred
