You recently had an email on eBay with Carol and I was alerted to your online museum. It is quite something that you obviously have near and dear to your heart and it is an outstanding and respectful tribute to those who flew helos during the Vietnam War.
I was a Lion weapons controller at Ubon RTAFB between '71-'72, and we controlled/flight followed and helped join fighters up with tankers far from where the real action was taken place. Where the brave men who flew our helicopters in Vietnam.
I would simply like to say to each and everyone of them ... thank you for your professionalism, dedication, and patriotism during a time when being there, doing what we did, was not very popular back home. You and I did what we were trained to do and sent there to do it. May God bless you, especially on the Veteran's Day.
