Stop in for a cup of coffee

Vegas ia $200-250 a round. Maybe in VN they'd give me a military discount...:lol:
I bet you get asked if you served in VN. If I remember right, you place id in South Vietnam.
Were there and US bases in the area that Chin or her Mom remembers??
I am about the age where they would think I had served there, but rarely am I asked. When asked, I tell the the truth. I will never be a Valor Thief. I do tell them that my Father served here at the height of the War 1968-1969. For the most part, Vietnamese people have forgotten that War and children are not even taught of the history. VN people are genuinely accepting of Americans, and often stop me just to talk. There are a few US Base sites still visible in the Mekong area where my house is, and her Moms house. There was an Army Airfield adjacent to the City of Vinh Long ( Vinh Long Airfield ) that has been swallowed up by the City's expansion. Duong Vo Van Kiet ( road Vo Van Kiet ). Vo Van Kiet was a famous South Vietnamese Polititian. You know that is was a runway when you drive down it, but now has light industrial and businesses, and homes along it. The Navy also had a PBR base at Vinh Long, on the Riverfront. PBR's were small (45ft) Jetdrive Battle Rigs that could traverse the small canals and waterways in the area. So yes, the is still a lot of Military history to see there, and I enjoy finding new things. Recently I have been into studying the History of the MACV-SOG teams operating across the fence for 8 years ...
