Totally unrelated to your photos: those who "know" recognize the "avatar".... when, where? Me: 1st RR Co (Avn), Cam Ranh RVN, 1970-71 (among other locations).

509th Headquarters at Tan Son Nhut 1970-71.

Also at Arlington Hall and Ft Devens.

WELCOME HOME!!!!!


Hard to believe, but it's become something of a surprise to stumble across others who've shared these experiences and would realize what your avatar signifies. Except for three other Crazy Cats I'd stayed in touch with, my last encounter with anyone else who knew was way back in 1983 at the Univ. of Utah.

I was a 98G "lingie" (linguist). Here's a pic from my time with the Crazy Cats, heading out for a mission over the Ho Chi Minh trail.

And here's a link to some of my other photos online: http://picasaweb.google.com/kruchoski/Vietnam_a_long_time_ago

Thanks for the pics, they sure bring back memories.

You must have gone to Monterey for linguistics school?

I was a Spec 5 also. We were responsible for assigning all ASA members in country. I did the same at Arlington Hall except then it was world wide.

I have reconnected with a couple friends on line about 10years ago and we have stayed in touch.

Thanks again for the pics!
