the information you provided was great. I must have miss read you article. I was never in country or had boots in the ground in vietnam. I was on three operations during the periods from 1973 to 1975. I guess i will have to wait on congress to pass the bills for blue water sailors during the vitenam war. There are couple 299 and 696.
