This park is located in Freetown, MA. I often ride my bike by there. Always wanted to take a couple of photos and share them here.

Thanks for sharing Don... so many memories... I can't believe that it has been over 50 years since we first got involved in Vietnam...

Thank you for the fine photos and for your service.

The most the majority of Americans know today of VietNam is old movies like "Apocalypse Now" and the Chuck Norris and Rambo garbage.

For those military "hoggers" that responded, I can only say "my pleasure and thank you". I did not serve during that time (4F then later entered in lottery and had #303 if I recall). But for those of us growing up in that era, that conflict hung over everything we did in life. Our world changed from 11/22/63 to the embarrasing political retreat in 1973. That decade formed the decisions we made in life and the values that make us who we are today.
