As this veteran's day draws closer, I am once again thinking about Nam and how it has affected my life. Someone recently asked me if there was much about the war that I remembered, and I guess there's alot about it that I can't forget. From first arriving in country in 1966 to coming home to a country where I wasn't sure where I fit in in 1967. No welcome home ceremonies. My dad telling me to just say I was "overseas" if anyone asked because of the mood of the country at that time. I remeber getting my Bronze Star and Army Commendation medal with V device in the mail and not telling anyone , including my parents, about it two months after I had been discharged from the Army. I think I'm about ready to get them out of the drawer that they've been in for all of these years and maybe frame them.

I'm looking forward to drinking a beer with you while we call each other SOBs at Joe's bar. First round is on me. Thanks for your service and friendship.

Always read sites like your's reverently. I was never based in Viet Nam but flew numerous flights in and out, including Pleiku AB, in a C-141. Very nicely done, and I will pass along to others.

Hello, I so much enjoy your web-site! My mother was a Lawver from Cayuga. Her father was John Lawver. John and Victorine Lawver had nine children and only one is left. My Aunt Mildred. I remember Uncle Jim and Aunt Maud from when I was growing up in Mellen, WI. Thanks for all your hard work. Mary
