and take 15 minutes to view the following trailers:
In The Shadow of the Blade
an emotion-packed documentary
of the 10,000 mile healing journey around the U.S.
of a battle-scarred UH-1 "Huey" helicopter.
Fantastic video!
An Ocean Away
follows the sisters of Donald Matosha to Vietnam.
With his 3rd Marine Division comrades they revisit
the mountain battlefield and meet the former
NVA soldier who'd buried the fallen Marine then later
led the US to recover his remains.
A Touch of Home:
The Vietnam War's Red Cross Girls
the story of a little-known program and the 627
adventurous young women who went to war
to do a unique job armed only with smiles and
a deep sense of patriotism.
The job?
Creating "A Touch of Home" in the combat zone.
(I'm a little partial to this one because I co-wrote and
narrated it AND it won FIRST PLACE for Short
Documentary in the 2009 GI Film Festival.)
YES!
 Hanoi Homecoming
a 3-kleenex trailer using
North Vietnamese archival
movie footage of our POWs released
from the "Hanoi Hilton" that February day in '73.
It also includes first-hand interviews and the re-creation
(with their families this time) of their Freedom Flight home.
It's a keeper.

WHO KNEW...
   that dirt mound was anything but solid
...until I stepped on it
and getting out became a tug-o'-war for my shoes,
that dried mud looks just like socks
and all I could do was laugh and get a picture.

                WELCOME!
This picture was taken when Marian Gibbs and I went to a
FSB near TayNinh called Go Da Hau. The chopper chose a
dry spot to land but when the truck came out to pick us up,
it promptly sank up to its axles. As you can see, I didn't
fare much better. I don't remember if we did a program
there but I do remember we helped fill a bunch of sandbags
before we left.
Those insignias on my cap were given to me by men in each of
the units I visited my last 2 weeks in-country while I was
with the 25th Infantry Division...It is surprisingly heavy and
one of my favorite momentos.
