For some time now I have been talking and thinking about going into my attic and getting out the letters I wrote home from Nam. I finally got the nerve and did it. I have read some of them and decided to post some each day. They will be somewhat modified since some of it is personal as the letters were to my then girlfriend now wife of 35 years.

In the box I found my Qualification Badge for the M14 Rifle (Expert) some VN coins 1 Dong, 5 Dong, 10 Dong in different shapes round and scalloped. Also found Christmas cards I sent with Vietnam style front. I will scan them and send to Mark so he can post them.

This is going to be tough so if I miss a day or two its just to get my mind back in order. Please remember that these are my thoughts, experiences, and words and should be treated as such. Discussion and comments will be graciously excepted.
