Flew on medivacs (Hueys) and was with First Recon Tashasdaddy on first tour. Then went back for operation baby lift the second time. Went over there with 15 fellow corpsman first time and only ten of us made it back.

Veterns day also brings back memories of long ago. I face it with my head held high now. Not like it was in the 70s when we hid who we were.

Favorite son in law was a medic in Nam. Three purple hearts, Bronze Star. Retired Master Chief. He is now a CNA (Certified Nurse Anesthetist).

I will ask him what outfit he was with.
