Welcome

 I made this web site while recovering from my first open heart operation, to keep my hands and mind occupied. Since that time, I have had to have my sternum opened two more times for an acute infection under my ribs and for a second heart operation. I have also had quite a number of stints placed in my body and legs and the arteries in both legs cleaned out because of severe blockages. Most, if not all is caused from the affects of Agent Orange from serving in Vietnam.

Because of this web site, I have been in contact with many of my squadron mates that I served with in Vietnam in 1965 and 1966 in the "PURPLE FOX" Squadron, HMM-364 and HHM-164 in 1971 and 1972.

To all I say, "SIMPER FI"
