Thanks for the ASAP reply. At least I know this works and how it works now. We are all getting old now but alive. The MIA POW issue is heating up again. Why don't we get someone like Bill Gates who is giving away his billions to simply pay the 3 billion to buy our POWs back and be done with it VS waiting for our government to do anything... ????????

Did you hear about the new book out that was given to Pres Bush to read???????

vanmac, THANK YOU for the reply. You are the 1st person from 1080 I have made contact with since 1970. Odd we both were in the same places also. If you want to chat sometime email me your phone number. I'll spend my dime.

My brother, Cpl John F Mixon, was at Chu Lai and Da Nang during that time period.

I go back a little further than that, pre-vietnam.
