I think you're right, I think we got to let some crews off in Oct, Nov. and some in Dec. My da 759-1 shows me being out for 15 days during that time frame and on 24th Dec. 7.3 hrs. I do remember taking out supplies for the grunts Christmas Eve. I know I was as happy to give that day as they were to receive.. Stick with us Doc, we'll help you piece together your tour.. hehehehe.. I love what you told your Mother, that was very true.. L8r Doc.. paul sr.
