Dear Mom and Dad: I imagine you are wondering already where I got this exta thin paper. Well it’s wrting paper that the Japanese use. The envelope is the kind of envelope they use too. After you finish reading this, have Genevieve take it to school and show Miss Fultz and the rest of the faculty who are interested in such things. It’s never warm enough to go outside without your coats on, and there is snow on the ground practically all the time. In the summer you can easily get a sunburn but you still have to wear your coat. We live in a tent which is boarded up on all four sides. There is no window in the tent but we have electric lights. We have a little coal stove in the middle of the tent which furnishes plenty of heat. The dance band I’m in plays at different places all over the island once a night and sometimes twice a night. Besides playing in the band, we all are on a working party every morning. There is a show on every night at the theatre but they are all the shows which we have seen in the states; although its something to pass the time away.

  • 01-10 January 25, 2010 C&P Brown Water Navy Tracking Program
    VA&R Archived Bulletins can be found at www.legion.org 01-10 January 25, 2010 C&P Brown Water Navy Tracking Program The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), in a January 2010 Compensation and Pension (C&P) Service Bulletin, announced a new initiative to collect data on Vietnam naval operations for the purpose of providing regional offices with information to assist with development in Haas related disability claims based on herbicide exposure from Navy Veterans. To date, they have compiled verification from various sources showing that a number of offshore “blue water” naval vessels conducted operations on the inland “brown water” rivers and delta areas of Vietnam. VA has also identified certain vessel types that operated primarily or exclusively on the inland waterways. The ships and dates of inland waterway service are listed below. If a veteran’s service aboard one of these ships can be confirmed through military records during the time frames specified, then exposure to herbicide agents can be presumed without further development. This is an ongoing project and the list below is by no means complete. Therefore, veterans on vessels that traveled the inland waterways not identified below will need to submit evidence supporting brown water service. The vessels currently identified via this program include: All vessels of Inshore Fire Support [IFS] Division 93 during their entire Vietnam tour o USS Carronade (IFS 1) o USS Clarion River (LSMR 409) [Landing Ship, Medium, Rocket] o USS Francis River (LSMR 525) o USS White River (LSMR 536)
