Have you considered going back to
Vietnam as a tourist? A number of Vets have returned including one of
our own Bob Schell, Recon
Platoon, '69-'70. Bob chronicles his trip in narrative and
pictures below. He is interested in hearing from anyone who served
with 2-60 Infantry during the same period. He is also willing to
share his Tourist experience with you as well. Bob promises to
send more pictures of his trip later. We will post them upon
receipt.

I recently went back to Vietnam
with a couple of other vets. We all work for the same company but were
in different units at different times. I was a medic in the Recon
Platoon from 9/69 to 1/70. On this last trip we did go to Tan Tru. It
was a really unusual feeling. I have old pictures of the market that
has Tan Tru written on the building and when I went back that same
building was there but this time with a lot more activity. The people
were very friendly and curious. I don't think they get many visitors
like me. Has anyone else gone back to Tan Tru? There is nothing to
remind us of the base camp except the road that goes to the river. Now
there are houses and hootches along the road. |
