I knew a lot of the the guys in the photo below.... Many did not see their 25th birthday. Do we really want to "stay the course"?

Ernie - I love you man, but this opinion should be elsewhere. Not on this forum.

Warren..
I just had to use this forum 'cause I could'nt post my picture on "any thing goes".

'69 I was a Medic in Cam Rahn Bay. Is that where you were off-shore in this pic?

Jimbo: I was at Cam Rahn Bay 70 to 71, a buddy worked in the pharmacy, SMGT ..... Sorry can't recall his name but we'd swap film for lobsters cause he did a lot of diving. I was in the Photo Squadron across the road from the FAC outfit. I also believe the political blather doesn't belong here, although I believe it was the Democrats that put us in Vietnam and a Republican that got us out.

Did 2 tours 67-69 in RVN and have similar photos of those that did not return. They ARE the reason we should stay the course. RLTW! Out.

Jimbo: One brain cell awoke, I think that SMGT at the Cam Rahn pharmacy was SMGT Smilage, did you happen to know him? He died mysteriously near Homestesd Air Force Base here in Florida. Supposedly drowned in a canal, even though he was an expert swimmer. His wife had three or four previous husbands that all died in some sort of accident.

What does RLTW mean?

Rangers Lead The Way!

Nolan - sorry to say I didn't know a Sgt Smilage.

...but I did know a Col. Phil McKracken!!

Mmmmm: The Colonel I ever ran into was one at the Hospital emergency entrance. We both dove over a three foot brick wall into a bunch of rose bushes when Charlie delivered some 120s a few yards away.
