Reunion Hotel
Jeez Smitty, I have been promising to find those photos for a long time, haven’t I? Guess I better get on it.
I’m out of town ’til next week, but will get it done when I get back.

This is great news and I had better get off my ass and start sending some emails
I think I have photos of all the guys you just mentioned and maybe even a photo of Maynard Sinclair.

Reunion
Rod, Pedro and all-
I’m glad Pedro’s coming. This will be a good reunion. Maybe we can even convince Billy V to steer his hog southwest…
I wouldn’t dare leave my wife Mary Jean at home — she’s heard too much about you guys to miss the chance to meet you in person.

Just like the Khe Sanh Vets Bull Jive Net that we had going at Khe Sanh in the early days of the Siege. Sure. We talked to each all the time but we hardly ever seen anybody. Hmm? Well that is the way I saw it. For example I knew you from Phu Bai but it was only for a few days and then I never heard from you again for a couple of months. But then we got sent to Khe Sanh we somehow “hooked up” to the Khe Sanh Bullshit Net. (more…)
Bob Howard
They don’t make them like Bob Howard anymore.

Sir Freddy Johnson
Freddy Johnson has been located. Eloy Rod has talked to him on the phone or the email. Let me post a photo of Freddy (Via Billy Ventura) when they were at he Camp Carroll or Con Thien area.
We actually found “Freddy Johnson”
Al (And 81s Gang)
I cant believe we actually found “Freddy Johnson” Ha! Plus hooking up with Gordon Brown is also good news as I had been in touch with him a few years ago (About nine) but then I lost touch with him. Still he set me up with some good flicks and he also said that he had been to a reunion.
Anyway I was so happy to hear about Freddy Johnson that I just got off the phone with his granddaughter who is only 16 but then it was only 11 PM out there in Wichita Kansas.
In any event, I told the grandchild of 16 years, that I (Maverick the TONK Player from 81s ) would be calling again in the morning. Just to say hello to my old nemesis.
Dang Guys. This is great news and especially if we could get some of these guys to come to the reunion. Hmm? Now what ever happened to that Corporal Arms from North Carolina? As I recall he was another Whiskey Wheels and at one time he was my Squad leader.
