I think I told you this once but I served with Benji at Da Nang and I don't think that chopper story is true although I had no proof but if he was in country during the fall then he would have had almost 7 consecutive years there.

I say thats not true because we both went up on Office Hours together for sharing the same rack for about 2 months. We would patrol on the same team and share a sleeping bag. Brass did not look to kindly on that behavior back then.

I sure miss Benji..

It's cool you found a bro you could trust to watch your back in the bush but when they start using your toothbrush..... You just have to draw the line somewhere.
