Spent a couple of Christmas’s there: 1965 & again in ‘67. Luck would find me assigned to 8th Fld Hospital, Nha Trang and the 85th Evac in Qui Nhon.Like these men we all made the best of it as it brought us one day closer to CONUS.
Merry Christmas all, 2024.
Happy 2025 to all of us remaining.

Each Christmas is all the more special as I received the statistic that only 30% of our brothers and sisters remain.
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a healthy new year

Thanks! Unfortunately, I no longer have a CD player on my laptop and would not be able to download them. Additionally, I’m not sure I would be able to save them to my website for others to view – might be too long. Have you considered going to YouTube and saving them there? Obtaining links would then be easy enough for the troops to watch.
