kr6ng, thanks for the link. I enjoyed it, those SF guys back then were a rare breed. How about those "white bag" carbines! All gone now but would love to see the sheets of serial #'s they were recording. Thanks again.....Frank

We would just go bananas when we saw the montagnard women up there in the highlands because they wore nothing but a skirt. Some were nice looking too.

We and the French just went off and left them to the commies. I'd like one of those Thompsons.
