Although I didn't serve in Nam, I extend great gratitude for all those vets that did. Hopefully a product that I helped to develop which was deployed in Nam helped to save servicemen's lives. Several of my friends served and told me of the difficulties they experienced both over there and at home.

Welcome home!

Thank You for YOUR service to all the Veterans, to the ones in the military now, and the ones that supported all of them. I was a young kid in Vietnam, 221st Avation Company, turned 21 there, 60-70. My youngest daughter, 28, is in Iraq now, 515th Combat Support BN. She is the S4. It is hard for me to believe that she is a CPT and has the responsibility for making sure that the units she supports has everything from the bullets to the toilets. I will be spending Veterans Day at the Veterans Home in T or C, NM with rest of the Combat Veterans Association Members from NM, saying Thank You to the Veterans. I would like to say Thank You for the Warm Comments to the Veterans, especially to the Veterans that are no longer with us on this earth.

USAF VN vet class of 68'-69' Cam Rahn Bay, Chu Lai, Da Nang. I also lost my father (95 WWII Navy) this year and my mother (both within 4mos.) and it will be hard wed. God Bless all vets everywhere.
