Ok heres a new one, my father has asked me to return to vietnam with him next year.
I know that his preferred method of fishing involved fragmentation grenades but somehow I think the current authorities might frown on that.Our stops include Di Linh,Bao Loc,
Ban Me Thout and Nha Trang.We will be there 10-14 days and we will have an english speaking guide so what the heck I might as well take a rod.any suggestions on my little whim?
What your father is looking for won’t rise to a fly and is likely far from the surface.
I hope it is a good trip for him. Tell him Doc says to watch where he walks.

Yup…what Steve said.
Tell your dad to keep it all in perspective. It’s made him a bigger man, all the experiences that he went through.
Good luck in your/his travels and keep it positive now.

don’t I know it guys,I was the only one of his kids born when he came back. I remember his joy at seeing a member of his team get off the plane after the POW release.A couple of years ago I tracked down the 2 surviving members of his unit.the one that was the P.O.W. spent almost 8 yrs as a prisoner and retired a LTC the other retired a LTG. I called both of them and since I share a name with my father when I introduced myself and after 30 years there was no pause for them to remember the name.just the response.Randy
