I wanted to thank everyone for the emails & phone calls, i’m so blessed to hear from guys in the 128th Tomahawks/Gunslingers friends that flew with my dad on his 1st tour of Vietnam, D/158th Redskins, also the 158th Phoenix and 158th Lancers friends/comrades in his 2nd tours of Vietnam. Also guys that serviced with my dad in the Navy as a Photographer with the Seabees I thought I’d share this mission my dad was the Photographer on “Operation Deep Freeze” I have learned so much more about him and seeing all the picture in my mom photo album putting the pictures together with the missions, it’s putting the pieces of his life together. I feel so blessed with the out pouring, I’m overwhelmed with joy and happiness. I’m looking forward to meeting all of you guys, setting down and hearing all the stories, seeing your pictures. THANK YOU!!!!
