did you ever go over to the SF camp...C company...or to the Mike Force club in pleiku? they were very close to the USAF base.

Yes I did. They were right outside our gate about three blocks from my hooch (lucky for us).

Umm, when these fellows tied on one, well.., let's just say they got a wee bit rambunctious. Scared the livin' sh** outta me a couple of times. I didn't hang out there too much... I was kind of a candy-ass electronics fly-boy &ltg>

On several occasions though we swapped a few new flight jackets for a case of steaks. The supply NOC's would look the other way as long as we weren't selling the stuff on the black market (and they got some of the steaks). I think the supply guys are the most influential people in the military at the ground level.

EDIT: were you the guy waving the .45?

Here is where I lived (the one on front)
