The Leg of Lamb handshake is dead on.<BR/>Phrannie,<BR/>You are very kind. Vietnam seems so far away but oddly close with the war in Iraq. The more things change...?<BR/>Richard,<BR/>Thanks for looking. The Trad boards at Ask Andy are always fun, cynical, generous, snarky and never boring. I am honored you would like to include my link. Feel free to. And I always just hit return twice for a para. Although, I'm still learning Blogger myself. You have great style for a 30year old.tintinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13652066200071703445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-73725778818185071222008-04-04T20:08:00.000-04:002008-04-04T20:08:00.000-04:00Brilliant post.

I just never comment. I have also enjoyed reading the Ask Andy Trad Forum about my blog. I know some speculated that I was a member on that particular forum, but I am afraid they are wrong! However, I do read from time to time. I think you are the gent who wanted me to use paragraphs. Well, I do, but when I hit publish post it clumps all the paragraphs together. If you know how to solve this problem, please share! Thanks again for having a wonderful blog, and I would love to add you to my list of links if you allow me. <BR/><BR/>Take Care,Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02918424936098694369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-5631245158668215242008-04-04T10:50:00.000-04:002008-04-04T10:50:00.000-04:00Tintin, we loved how eloquently you described your...Tintin, we loved how eloquently you described your <B>Trad Dad</B>, you sure are a talented writer. He sounds like our kind of guy (and so do you). The Vietnam War will never end; nevertheless, you have done a service for our country and younger generation by posting it.phranniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04970796488961326391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-87714556974815677702008-04-02T19:30:00.000-04:002008-04-02T19:30:00.000-04:00beautiful post. and a gorgeous photograph!beautiful post. and a gorgeous photograph!Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09378435858506049949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-42252777583614639662008-04-01T17:58:00.000-04:002008-04-01T17:58:00.000-04:00Greenies, Tintin, a different breed of critter.

I had contact with them in the Nam--they'd contact my platoon of the AirCav needing medical treatment, usually minor though occasionally a GSW needed to airlifted to Danang or Chu Lai. But they frankly gave me the chills. I wish your dad a speedy recovery.<BR/>Beau in SeattleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-54878270565446826482008-03-31T17:29:00.000-04:002008-03-31T17:29:00.000-04:00Trad Dad?

Maybe somewhere between Steve McQueen and "Rat Patrol"?<BR/>I only met him once. He was short and square but his handshake was big and powerful. It was like holding a leg of lamb.<BR/>He left quite an impression.<BR/>Best wishes for a speedy recovery.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-21644369691831957142008-03-31T15:30:00.000-04:002008-03-31T15:30:00.000-04:00Trad or not, your dad sounds like a great guy.
