I have been so busy for the past 30
years making a living and all the other stuff that goes with it
that just recently I have returned to memories that I thought were
gone. Many are of the 60's and my teenage years and some to Viet
Nam. Enough so that I search for Biên Hòa on the internet.
I was in the Air Force and did not experience
the day to day miseries that many had to contend with such as finding
a decent meal, clean clothes, and a dry place to sleep. Still, being
cooped up on a base in a pure passive role does impact one's life.
I, again was fortunate to be able to come
back to the states and make the transition back to life without
using acronyms to describe what I was doing, where I was going,
and where I had been.
Attached is a picture and the words I wrote on the back as a young airman.
I believe this will have a special meaning to you. It was written by
someone inside the perimeter that you and others secured. Also another
picture which may bring back a memory or two.
I will send more pictures in the near
future.
Take care!
Sheldon
