No kiddin! Fantastic photographer hands down. Anyone that thinks they know a little about Veitnam generally only see's the worst of the worst pics/videos.

Thanks for sharing such an amazing part of American history with us. Voted!

Remember Veterans day is just around the corner. So what does it mean to be a veteran Father Denis Edward O'Brien/USMC said it best:
Some veterans bear visible signs of their service: a missing limb, a jagged scar, a certain look in the eye.
Others may carry the evidence inside them: a pin holding a bone together, a piece of shrapnel in the leg - or perhaps another sort of inner steel: the soul's ally forged in the refinery of adversity.

Yes and no. They had many problems. In 66 I used an USAF AR15 with full auto capability.It had no bolt assist to chamber a dirty round.

The fore arm pieces cracked and broke frequently. The accuracy, while better than any AK, was poorer than an M-14. Th More..
