Subject: Da Nang AB Airmen's Club

Hi Don: I greatly enjoyed reading your story about the Enlisted Airmen's Club in DaNang [http://www.war-stories.com/dn-poss-airmans-club-fan-jbj-1965-1.asp]; I was the aviation storekeeper aboard the USS Princeton and handled all of the Marine Aircraft parts and some Air Force; (also supplied the fleet with sunglasses traded for Whiskey in DaNang ha ha).

Do you remember anyone like me at the club? I remember coming inside a place like you describe with the red lights and fans---I was a scared, 19 year-old in 1966 and vaguely remember watered down beer.

Thanks for the memory (in the words of Bob Hope,
