There needs to be some big event at Dryhootch to get as many Dryhootchers in the same place: meet and greet.
Have you been there? I stopped in once, but it was before the Coffee House was…
thanx for being there for us, I am a Vietnam vet also, 68-69, Doc was always used in respect, the last hope for some of us. Trying to get a hold on the PTSD crap myself hyper they call it, tried beer but that only got me pending (2) oui`s--bull doo…
I was on a destroyer. Was what they laughingly called a "Blue Water Sailor" if you consider ducking small arms fire Blue Water. Spent time off Quang Tri Delta, just south of the DMZ and lots of time in the Tonkin Gulf on Operation Line…
Manny, I thought I had left you an e-note after the High Ground weekend. I want you to know that I appreciate the company and support the brief time I was there. My lower back is in better shape now. I felt I was in good company while I was there.…

Will be the official story of the fire from FBI, GSA etc. with input from the Viet Era Vet Janitors who worked there that nite (me ncluded). Lots of interesting details and lots of VERRRRY improbable assumptions reached by the official…

I felt that The High Ground experience to be most peaceful. I did leave in the middle of Day #2 due to my back not wanting to walk very much. I missed many things, but from the time I was there, I always felt a strong sense of brotherhood, support,…

I was on a destroyer. Was what they laughingly called a "Blue Water Sailor" if you consider ducking small arms fire Blue Water. Spent time off Quang Tri Delta, just south of the DMZ and lots of time in the Tonkin Gulf on Operation Line Backer.
Will be the official story of the fire from FBI, GSA etc. with input from the Viet Era Vet Janitors who worked there that nite (me ncluded). Lots of interesting details and lots of VERRRRY improbable assumptions reached by the official investigators.

Bradly; Good to hear from you, and enjoy the great white north. I always had some good buddys from the old WACVO days. I have been in DC for 10 years, and my time here is growing short. I will be back in Stl (Highridge, gotta love that name) within the next 6-12 months and may finally start writing my book about the Records Center fire. Do stay well and warm. Bill Elmore
