Forty Years Ago Today
 

Forty years ago today I was standing strip alert at Ban Don with 4 gunship's and 4 slicks.
Mid-afternoon the Santa 'Bou landed with Doughnut Dollies and f-ing newies.
I had to pass up a free jug of good sippin' likker.
Newies want to know what we were doing on the strip with gun's and slick's,because there was a truce.

Lyin' thru my teeth, "NVA and VC have been known to break the truce" so we are out here and all our bird's aren't in one place.
Newies said " it's about time someone over here started thinking"!! :D

I was...

Standing in an LZ,, North East of FB Barbara..

Enjoying our Christmas meal,, leaning against a water buffalo(250 gal water bladder)

Taters & stuffing in one thermal tub,,
Turkey & gravy in another,,
Lime Cool-aid in a third..

or was it turkey & cool-aid in one thermal,, and everything else in the other thermal???

It was such a Delicious Blur..
