    Just a quick note Jim.. one of my best freinds (Lanny Franklin) did the Air force on either C130's or 131's the same period as a Loadmaster. I believe they basically flew back and forth from Taiwan to Vietnam. I happened to catch him at Danang unloading the aircraft once when I was on my way to R & R in Sydney, Austraila...

    Thanks for your service as I have ridden a ton of C130's shuttling here and there.

    No Dry Eyes here.

    A friend of mine who introduced my wife, son just enlisted in the Canadian Army and he will quite likely end up in Afghanistan.

    A big Thank You to all those who enlist.

    as a Nam-era vet, I was touched by all the vets in the video who were saluting.... many appeared to have been out for years, but they were still honoring a fallen brother.Ithank all vets here who sacrificed for their nation, and having 24 years at the VA hospital behind me, I've seen the scars.
    This was a fitting tribute for an honored son of America..... I salute him as well...
