So Kos has a front page diary about Sheldon Adelson stating "The uniform that I wore in the military, unfortunately, was not an Israeli uniform. It was an American uniform..."
I wore that uniform when I spent some time at Bien Hoa Air Base in 68 and 69
As a crew chief on this AH-1G Cobra, 1st platoon (Playboys), 334th AHC, 145th Aviation Battalion, 1st Aviation Brigade.
The business end
I didn't have much choice since there was a draft at the time and I enlisted to try and get a better deal like many of my peers who were also young and stupid (or just ignorant). But that's another story.
One of the outfits at Bien Hoa was the Air Force unit, the "Ranch Hands". There mission was to spray Agent Orange over the countryside. We all know how that turned out.
Remember Ft. Dix stockade circa 1969
Here's a bunch of vets who wish they hadn't worn the uniform
I sure would like to get those 3 years based on a lie back.
