Best Friends Too many to list. Here are a few, Paul Franceschina, Emil Skeete.
Best Moment Learning that my oldest daughter was born in Korat. Flying home to bring my American-Thai daughter to America at 7 months old. I returned back to Ubon to complete my tour. R&R to Bangkok and Korat
Worst Moment When aircraft AC-130A #0044 came back from a combat mission extremely damaged with #3 & #4 engine's shot up real bad. Number #3 & 4 props were missing! Later, that same aircraft was shot-down and everyone on board killed in 1972.
