"SuperBowl of VietNam 1965"
When I first went out to the
field it was around Lz Mary...
then into the Valley...it was like sacred ground to me and it was errie being there...Then
over to lz Mary and the Special Forces Camp..I recall the Montagnards and how different they were from the Vietnamese...these
people were proud and would not take your candy and things though offered....all in all they were quite refreshing...
The 2/5 of Nov65 swept into
Lz Victor then over to Lz X-ray
I had the pleasure of being at
the Wall this past Veterans Day and Sam Elliot was one of the speakers...his heart was with us all when he spoke of the movie"We
Were Soldiers Once.....and Young coming out 1march...This is what the movie is about...the Ia Drang Valley in "65"...At present
it has received alot of praise from alot of organizations and indivuals..hope it
is as good as expected.....
