DK-WomenCombat-a.jpgWomen in Combat - VietnamWhile women in combat did not occur in the US military until 40 years after Vietnam, Don offers this photo to point out the shock that our "point men" saw when encountering women with automatic weapons. And they knew how to use them. Vietnam was both a major culture shock and a guerilla war.Apr 01, 2013

Fire_Mission.JPGFire Mission?There's the old saying about "When the dog hears the Fire Bell....". Don thought he heard someone yell "Fire Mission" and ran through the fire. That happens when you get older.
Actually, it was the insanely-popular "Warrior Dash" held in Jackson, MS on 4/21/12, a 5K race that includes a military-style obstacle course. It is connected with the St Jude charity. Yes, Don finished on the same day, and no, he did not wet his pants. That's just his Geezer outfit.Apr 29, 2012

DK-New_Vietnam2.JPGDon, wearing his traditional "artillery red" shirt, beckons you to visit his backyard. One might say it is his "new Vietnam". Lotsa work went into this tremendous transformation of a simple backyard to a small jungle.Aug 10, 2010

DK-New_Vietnam.JPGHA! I liked Vietnam so much that I created my own personal jungle here at home.
Actually, this is Don's backyard that he and wife Barb created over a period of several years and has won several awards from his home city of Bartlett, TN.Aug 10, 2010
