OK, I was Army, and 50 years ago makes things a bit hazy. I thought I saw a few C-124's fixed up as a gunship while in the Highlands. I knew that was a C-130, flown in more than a few.

Hey, your part of the reason I am here in America. Thank you. My parents went on a Navy ship during the Vietnam war to immigrate here. Thank you for your service and everyone else. I always appreciate the military even though I do not have any members associated with it because of this reason.

Thank you, partially here due to you as well. Parents immigrated on Navy ship during Vietnam war. Mom won't touch a fig newton anymore, that's what she was fed more often than not.

Sedona was awesome, I didn't get a change to run the broken trail, we did some fire roads only and sight seeing, I'll definitely going back. We met a local guy at the restaurant and gave me this map.

I wish had more time but didn't got a chance to run the broken trail, we did run through Boyton Canyon and some fire roads for the sight seeing on ruins. We are definitely going back. We met a local guy at Cowboy Club restaurant and gave me this map for cool places to off road. You can off road to devil bridge at bottom of the ridge and then hike up.

You didn't miss much, Battle of Dak To 68' spent pretty much the entire month of February in a bunker, picked up a few scars.
