Dale,For many of us because of what we saw and what we did while in the service of this great nation, there will never be true peace of mind, body or spirit on this plane of existence. But you Dale, have run the race, fought the good fight and done your duty with honor and integrity...nothing more could be asked of you.May your spirit find in the afterlife the serenity and tranquility you were deprived of in this life.

I'm glad to see you made it home, and I hope in one piece. I served out of firebase An Hoa with 2/5 Fox. I spent time at Khe Sahn but mainly in the area from Da Nang to Hue to the Valley. I was only there 6 months (July to Dec '67) before I bought it. We started out with 100 men; when I got hit there were 6 of us left. That was one of the greatest experiences of my life. Talk about taking a trip back in time - these people were near primitive, except, of course, for Victor Charles, the NVA and the Chinese. They did liven up the place and made it interesting.

I don't go to reunions. I lost touch with the few guys I saved; we were at Great Lakes Naval Hospital at the same time (Same place I went to Corps School). I was released from the hospital after4 months and I was retired with 40% disability and we just lost touch.

It's damn good to hear from a fellow corpsman. We are a rare breed.

Where are you located? What do you do? It would be great to talk.

Thanks Doc for taking the time to contact me and stay in touch if you can.

Doc Mike...
