Khe Sanh Pictures – 3rd Recon
Here is a picture of 3rd Recon hooch. Thought you might like to have it even though it is Bravo CO. Also air drop in 1967. I have a few more pictures on slides that I am going to have put on a cd, so I can scan and send to the Khe Sanh vets home page if he wants them.
The Tattoo
In 1995 I was diagnosed with terminal Cancer and given 4-6 months to live. As my wife and I talked about the things we wished we had done and what to do with what was left I said I wished I had gotten a tattoo when I was in. My wife told me, get one there's time. I said, we'll fight this thing and if I live to be 60 I'll get one for my birthday.
