HootchFront.jpg (98799 bytes) Home sweet home.  It doesn't look like much but a few months after this photo was taken I would have given anything to get back into this palatial estate.  I shared this palace with three others.  My bunk was just inside the door on the left.  (Duc Pho, Date: October  1967)  Click here to see what my future temporary home would be.
