I have a fun trip today. Going to lunch with a Vietnam veteran. He was a helicopter pilot, and a gunner. He is very private about his time their. So far I can get information about his being wounded with Chrapinell. He didn’t get the Purple Heart medal, because he didn’t feel like he deserved it. He said he lost too many friends, and he is alive.
I am working on him to accept the medal, because I can arrange that for him.
