and take a tour of one of those planes. I've included a picture of me and the C-141 I came home on. It was taken at Clark AFB in the Philippines.

RW-2.JPGThe Mighty Ninth goes by sea78 viewsWhat I remember was that I went by sea and that the trip was rough due to the flat bottom of the LST. I recall standing to get a better view and the ship came down off a wave and buckled my knees. I then climbed into the cab of a truck for the remaining trip to Duc Pho.
