remember reading, or being told, that phu loi is ,or was, used a political prison camp

Richard, you say you tried going to Phu Loi but couldn't. What was the problem? The Vietnamese wouldn't let you access the area?

I was at Phu Loi in April 67 to June 68! I was with the 612th Trans. Det. Attach to the 205th SPHCO CH-47A Chinook, the 213th Blackcats were there First! I was a 67u30 Hel Repairman! I had gone back to Vietnam in 2013 & 2015! I try going to Phu Loi, but Couldn't. I'm in Contact with some of the Guys from Both Units! Just Want to say to Everyone Welcome Home Everyone! In 2013, I had Landed in Saigon International Airport and I have a Photo of Two Army Huey's that are All Dressed Out and Polish that the Gooks Fly, to this Day! And a few Brown Water Navy Boats! Vung Tau still has the Airfield, There's nothing of Us being there! Everything is Torn Down, a few Reventments not Many.

to all avelers:
keep your eyes on the agent orange presumptive list.
hypertension may be added by nov. o1, 2017. they expect to have as big a turnout for high blood pressure as they did
for ischemic heart disease. so any and all who have hbp get
ready to re apply to va for an upgrade. there could be a lot of $$$ involved. so all take care.

Jack McCabe on June 15, 2017 at 2:10 PM said:

We have 70 people registered as coming to the Avel Gathering! Keep 'em coming!

I hope everyone was able to make it to a nice Memorial Service today. Jacksonville, Florida does a very nice Memorial Service at the Duval County Memorial Wall. The keynote speaker was Admiral William Moran Vice Chief of Naval Operations. During the ceremony they gave a special shout out to the Vietnam Veterans which I thought was a very nice touch. Looking forward to seeing everybody in Charleston.

Jerry Mahanay on April 14, 2017 at 6:35 AM said:

Leon,Debbie and I are coming in on October 7th and staying until the 14th. Come on over to Charleston on the 7th and hang out with us that weekend. We can hit all the oyster bars and I will give you a walking tour of the Historic District. Mike and Dawn Blatt are coming in on the 8th. The Mason's will be there of course so come on to Charleston we will show you a good time.

Leon Chlebowski on April 13, 2017 at 4:23 PM said:

I didn't realize, until today that the gathering in Charleston is during the week and does not include the weekend, i can't make it during the week, don't have anyone to do my business during the week, i could do a friday or a monday in conjunction with a weekend but not just during the week, i will miss you guys, maybe next time.

Jerry Mahanay on March 22, 2017 at 5:56 AM said:

That is very interesting Flying Tiger Airlines. Would love to hear her story. Both of you should come to the gathering in Charleston this October details are on Reunion 2017. A good friend of mine Rod Chennault is the grandson of General Chennault who commanded the Flying Tigers in China.
