![]() For the record this the first time that I ever said anything on the net about being in Viet Nam. Check google you dumb ****,not hardly flounting anything. Only the fact that there are some of us that walked the walk. Now I'm going to get somewhat specific. One medal I recieved was the ARCOM with V for valor. It was downgraded from a Soldiers medal. The medal was for rescueing several Vietnamese from a burning village caused by a fully armed VNAF F-5 that flamed out on takeoff and crashed into the village just east of Bien Hoa. As for measuring the rounds they really didn't fly past they landed all around us. Where would you have been, hiding under your bunk sucking your thumb and crying for your mommie? You didn't answer my question why aren't you still at Eagle What was your job there? Make sure you wear your track shoes to Sun N Fun and Oshkosh so you can run to security when you see me. Because I promise our paths will cross. Then we will find just how brave you really are without a keyboard to hide behind. Frank M.Hitlaw Jakarta, Indonesia |

In article , Richard Riley says...
So I guess Juan knows all about the Ultralight Hall of Fame, since Zoom was inducted there. 'Cause, everyone knows Zoom holds the Ultralight altitude record, and he was the first to fly coast to coast in an UL. So he must have been one of the very first people inducted there, right? zoom's never been nominated either. I guess I pulled a lot of sheep over people's wool to get to be included in the first induction :-) It was and still is a great privilege to be there. Seem's both zoom and jaun are envious of those who actually did something in their lives rather then talk about it. Be it building and flying your own plane, doing some feat that required a certain amount of testicular fortitude or any number of accomplishments that neither zoom or jaun have ever attained. So they try to attain what they can't by ripping and tearing at those who did ,hanging on to the coat tails of the successful hoping that someone will notice them in the presence of people they wish they were. They're Walter Mitty's living dual lives of reality and what they percieve themselve's to be.zoom's the great aviator and pilot and jaun is this brave macho man trying to impress with his bravado .Both are cry's for attention but both lack the ability of doing something worthy of attention. I used to feel sorry for people like that but in these two cases I hope they both get what they deserve. "Credibility it was always about credibility". Chuck S RAH-14/1 ret |

Nice try, but it don't play in the big city. Well, sure. I mean, they put Pete Townsend and Roger Daltrey in, and when it was reported, everyone who read about it just said "Who?" Thanks, I'm here all week. So I guess Juan knows all about the Ultralight Hall of Fame, since Zoom was inducted there.

No need to be catty. You know zoom created the Ultralight Hall of Fame and paid for it with his own money. He's just too modest to admit it.

![]() Jerry; I arrived at Bien Hoa with the 101st on 7 Dec 67 left there mid Feb for camp Eagle. The F-5 crashed a couple of days before the tet in the Widows Village just east of the airfield. That was exciting but not near as exciting as the Tet that was a couple of days to remember. There will never be an airshow to rival the F-100's dropping 500lb bombs inside the perimeter. Some day we will have to sit down over a cold one(something other than muzzleloader) and find out how close we were during that period. Frank |

![]() "UltraJohn" wrote in message ink.net... It appears from the FAA's preliminary investigation that the accident was not the fault of the aircraft's controls etc etc. And yet Chuck had no problem blaming the lack of an optional fuselage cover. How nice of him. Personally my opinion is he was dead before the plane hit the ground, otherwise how would such an experience pilot not even communicate a problem with ATC who he was in contact with? You haven't even bothered to read about the autopsy results. There was nothing wrong with him. |

Speaking from experience? ![]() I'm heading out to Jackson Hole to meet with the NTSB next week and give what ever assistance I can. Ah, I see you got your priorities straight. While Jim Campbell's out flying with Angel Flight, you're out doing the CYA dance in Wyoming. |

I know you were raised in Podunk and still think it's big. Can't do anything about that. You're right, my opinion of you is probably shared by half a dozen or so putzes on this newsgroup. The rest of the group isn't quite as charitable towards you. Clueless and blessed with ESP. What a combination. When's the circus passing through town? ![]() |
