On top of all that Brother, many of us tend to have symptoms they call "early death" syndrome. The FEAR that we won't live much longer. Like being in good health at 30 but thinking you were going to die any day. It's amazing how many guys in our Battery were dead. .
Hey,... we better get together quick!!! *S* As soon as I clear up this flood in the house issue, we gotta get together.
A friend from Nam I just found this month sent me a picture of him and I in 68. We've been e mailing back and forth (I met him and then the water hit me) and we have haven't spoken on the phone yet. A lot of our e mails are about people we know were killed or died. It's amazing how many guys in our Battery were dead. I'm 62 and was one of the young ones. He said I was the first guy he found from our old unit, and that's after 40 years. I've found quite a few.
yeah, we gotta have that coffee soon.
How about an NES Vietnam Vet get together?
Man, sorry about the flood issue. Had that happen once years ago and it's not pretty I know. We had to move out of the house for 4 months. And of course the insurance company didn't feel like they needed to come up with all the costs.........rat bastids.
Yup, gotta do coffee. Believe it or not, most everyone I'm still in contact with in my unit has either heart problems, prostate cancer, or booze problems. It's like a black cloud.
I got ya plus 3 years and was in Vietnam in 67 & 68 where the heaviest of the Agent Orange stuff was dumped. Remember first thing in the morning checking out the aircraft only to find them glistening with smelly shit. That was in Lai Khe in III Corps. Have Non Hodgkins Lymphoma myself but continue to beat the odds. Saying that..........we'd better make it pretty quick!!!!!
