Dixon58.jpgThe Big Surprise!216 viewsThe big surprise was the very tall, longhaired redhead in the pink babydoll negligee and heels. She did an EXTRA SPECIAL dance as the finale'...she came OUT of the negligee and the audience went beserk! Guys were climbing, pushing, shoving, fights breaking out...I was nearly crushed.

Dixon23.jpgPerformers & Entertainers215 views(Duc Pho, maybe) I distinctly remember the girl (on the right sitting) was quite withdrawn except when she was performing. I talked with her for a bit and she had seen a lot of bad stuff. I suspect she was a little depressed over something she had recently seen, but I didn't press the issue. But you can see here, while the fellow is performing, she seemed almost ready to cry. But when it came her turn, she smiled and went on like a trooper!

Dixon31.jpgCharles Lovelady215 viewsCharles Lovelady at Montezuma standing next to the APC we affectionately called "Double-Deuce" on a tank retriever. It has just been hauled back from being either broken down or blown up. At one point, Double-Deuce was driven over a 500-LB. bomb that VCs buried. Driver, another friend, Derwyn Kaiser out of Baltimore, was (as I recall) saved by being blown out of the driver's hatch and had to undergo a long and painful hospital stay and operations. Oddly enough, we met not at Montezuma, but at a hospital down in Saigon as I recall when we were both patients.
