    Dave, you have returned?  You are the same Dave pictured in my gallery aren't you? 

    Speak up! Especially if you were one of the original "base slobs"

      Yes, I got tipped over in an intersection!! My fault --got a ticket!  Insurance bought me one just like it but newer and had some change left over! 

        It's good to hear you ain't dead.  How are you and your wife doing. The last time I heard from you that there were similar medical problems with both of you. How are you doing now?

       I am doing just fine, and my health is good. The VA replaced both of my knees in 2015 and they are just perfect. I walk ourt in the hills off-road several days a week and since the knees were replaced I have averaged right at 330 miles a year!  I am also in better shape than I have been in. And, I am still overweight. I retired in 2013 on my 67th birthday, but worked training & replacing my my replacee. I haven't worked since 2015.

        Steve and Red and I were talking about you the other day and Steve came up with a reprimand that was given to Red for abandoning his buddy. (me)! Do you remember that?

      Well, I have got to go now but here is my e-mail address  [email protected]

      I think we can also talk privately on this forum . 

      Stay in touch, I am happy to see your are still kicking!

    Mike,

    I think I remember you! At least I should! I was in the 35th. all of 1968, part of 67 & part of 69. I was third wiper under Willard and Lafferty on 56-475.  I member your last name and Rice's.  Maybe we can refresh each other's memories. Keep posting and check my gallery out. I have quite a few Naha and Ubon pics you will recognize.

      Mike, of course I remember Haskel, I mentioned his name in my last post on the forum. Was 1st Sgt Galloway there when you were there. When his wife moved over from the states Gary Levesque (frog) and I took over his room in the barracks. It had just two beds, carpet, a sink and even a refrigerator!  Some of the guys that lived on my floor were Ed Cielacki, Harvey Snitzer, Ron Hensely, etc. John Chase was a good friend also and he was later with me at CCK. We both got consecutive overseas orders. So much for the "dreamsheet"!

      One guy I have been looking for is Bruce Lawler. He and his wife lived just out the back gate when she joined him. Very nice couple.Do you remember Ruffian a black NCO who ran the dispatch truck? How about Sammy Seymore? Keyes? You know , I just remembered a bunch more guy I have pictured  from the 35th. I will have to dig them out and post them. Most of my pics. are also slides. I use a slide and photo copier that works great, and you edit them on your computer. I will let you know what is etc. If you are interested. Also, keep an eye on the forum for my posts -- I am on a roll!😁

      Ken
