Man, Stik, thank you so much for those pictures!

The rocket-launching Dodge truck is a unique example, glad to hear one still exists. Also I never get tired to see some cool DUKWs! :)
Going to watch them again!

just one more...

This moment made it worth it for me... reliving my 11H days (Heavy Anti Armor Infantryman-aka TOW gunner). One of my fellow AMPS members snapped this shot and just sent it to me Thank you Jake!

Lyle, I do not need to be thanked for that. I have been lucky and privileged to be able to do things that I played at and dreamed of when I was a boy growing up. How many people in life get to say that?

Well, it never hurts to say thanks. My wife and I will stop guys with Vietnam hats or jackets and thank them. We appreciate you, pal.

Those guys definitely need the thanks. They put it on the line when asked for a nation that treated them indifferently at best and quite hostile on occasion when they came home.
