Yep.......More times then i care to remember.........
And the rice bread with the baked in mosquitoes...
Kind of sounds like San Miguel beer in the Philippines ... 17% alcohol ... cost like $0.25 a bottle.
Na... That would probably have be an up grade...:Shrug:..
My unit (combat engineers) was the next unit to be deployed to Nam when President Johnson started withdrawing troops. I got down and kissed the ground. So Blessed not to go.
Lost my next door neighbor, I grew up with. and a couple other friends. Lost another close friend to agent orange years after he was in country.

Quit sure that was a miss print. Meant to type Nam Vets
Beer 33
WOW, haven't seen them for a lOOOOOOng time, Thank God!!!
We lost a lot of young people there with no one back in the states really caring about it.
Had never been spit on until I came home what a time it was, lost a few friends and some really close ones who I have not forgotten or stopped wearing RED and BLACK for those we lost there.
Not being there was a Blessing to you, besides that you really didn't miss anything by not being there.
LIVE FREE and RIDE SAFE my friends,

I haven't been in a chopper since 66....And still remember balling out before the skids hit ground...And then getting away from that big green target as fast is i could...
When I was there in 1970-71 it was an Asian brewed beer called Tiger Beer and I always thought it was made to taste like a Tigers piss instead of a beer.

I was wondering the same thing. Thought maybe I'd missed a whole different era while I was in Viet Nam.
Warm...Ie Hot Budweiser taste the same... We had a few cases of Bud dropped through the triple canopy with a resupply [
--] Half of the cans exploded hitting the ground..The rest at 100º tasted like the proverbial dish water.. ...But it was a nice gesture from our resupply clerk back at 3 Tango........
For me it’s never a happy day….But then again everybody takes out of Vietnam what they need to….?..
