I left the fields of Vietnam the summer of 1969 and landed at The University of Texas at Austin later that summer.
Like many others, little did I know how the prior 12 months changes a person.
Father - Retired AF Colonel
Son - Retired Navy Lt Commander
Grandson - Marine Captain
Me - Drafted US Army Staff SGT served 21 months

This is a place for my thoughts, opinions, pictures and more "ups" than "downs". Before I get to old to remember I have a need to get some of this down, even if it is just for myself.
I always said I would go back to Vietnam someday to try to answer some questions and thoughts from God told me you will know why you went back when you get there.

My thanks to: Parkhurst, Birddog and Teddy Bear who showed me "the ropes" many years ago.
