[QUOTE="RSteve, post: 572984, member: 164"] [SIZE=5]Before I'm too old to make that kind of trip, I'd like to retrace my steps. I'll use a guided tour service. I really don't have either the desire or balls to travel extemporaneously anymore. I want things planned with a tour guide. I knew many Vietnamese nationals during my tour in '68-'69, but I don't know how to contact them and I assume that most have died. Besides, even if I could contact someone I knew, who wants an 80-year-old tour guide? One of my friends is a former Marine who did two tours up north. I'm going to try to talk him into going with me. I don't expect a "yes" as he spent a lot of time recovering from wounds, but maybe he's also curious. The guy I'd have really preferred as a travel partner, also Army, wouldn't go without his wife, plus he related that he's starting to have memory issues. I know my late sister's husband would go with me in a heartbeat. He's former Air Force Reserve, no combat duty, and 85 years old, but he travels alone constantly. [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
