I'm also back at work with the USAF but I have also put in my Disability Retirement papers as of yesterday. WHAT A TRIP! I did start feeling bad in SC and made a trip to the ER where my blood pressure was 235 over 108 plus an elevated temperature. Felt fine, looked bad. My need stick USMC buddy from California stuck with me for over 3 hours until things got better. I knew I wasn't going to make it back to California nor did I need to as my career in Army aviation began at Ft Wolters and ended there when I was evaced from Nam back to Wolters for 2 years. The next day I ended up in the hospital in San Antonio due to dehydration, excessive blood pressure, bad temperature, etc. Remained there for 9 days and can only remember the last three. I must have been out of it as I had lost almost 15 pounds during the Thunder Flight. Guess 19 yuears at a desk job will do that to you when you try to be 19 again for three weeks. BUT, WHAT A HOOT the trip was. All of the people were great and even my new Nam Combat Medic bro that was filming the trip (Bill) "walked the walk" after breaking his arm in Oklahoma during the early part of the trip. Other folks were a little worn out too once they hit homeplate in California. Something like this only comes along once in your lifetime and everyone involved in this trip had "the makings" of any combat aircrew member that ever flew on a helo; this especioally includes the ladies that helped out so much during the flight. The easy part was the actual flying. Everything else is what made it tough. Have been there, dun that. Well, I have an article to write about the trip for several publications that is due today. Take care my friends. Lou "Rocket" Rochat Headhunter 16 1970-71 Hi Folks - I have finally got caught up on almost 1,000 emails at work but am still working on the ones at my home email address.
