My dad was in Nam in 69, a coast guard PBR attached to a Corps unit by the DMZ in I corps. I was stationed at Camp Horno on Pendelton. Twenty min from there is either like Oceanside on the south or Carlsbad on the north if i remember correctly. I spent most of my time there not there. We were either on deployment or training for deploymet at 29 palms or somewhere like that. For my service you are welcome, and i make it a point to reply to every comment i get. I am trying to grow my steemit account and my followers. If someone takes the time to read my content and comment, i figure i owe them a reply. I believe interaction is one of the best ways to gain quality support. and i thank you for your time and support John. You and your dad have my respect, God bless

I grew up in rancho bernardo poway area, a little more inland. 30 mins maybe. My dad carried the radio on his back but was lucky enough to get on with an officer, were they were underground for like 4 of the last 5 months he was there. I hope you get what you want my friend. i am a chef so if you make to sacramento its on me.
The average person doesnt understand the importance of the communication that the radio provides. Like a Corpsman or medic with the red cross emblem or a machine gunner, the comm guys radio makes him a high value target for the enemy.
I hope to take you up on that meal one day, just no seafood please. God bless brougham
