Comments: Just checking in and seeing all the wonderful changes to the website. It's been a pleasure all these years seeing the many changes Hans has made to this website. I am in the process of sending Hans a selection of pictures I have on a thumb drive to be added to the website. I was with the 2nd Plt from Feb 70 to Aug 71. My first ship I was assigned to was 67-17211. Simpson was my crewchief and he taught me a lot. I ended up crewing 211. When it was sent off for direct support maintenance I was assigned another ship. but like your first love, you never remember the rest. I wish I could remember my next ship but alas, I cannot. Like so many memories lost, I have also lost memories of the good and bad times in Vietnam. This website helps me at least keep some of what I do remember. Hang in there eh!!
