Great interview. Those nurses earned the name Angels. E Co/3rd Bn/ 187th Inf - 101st Abn Div

I found our reunions for the Americal to be healing and glad to share memories with old friends.

True. The nurses did hold hands with seriously wounded soldiers and yet some still made it home alive after evacuation to Japan. Many cases we never heard that they made it and found them years later. Miracles happened.

I left Chu Lai just as you were getting there. I was drafted and really appreciated all you nurses who joined to take care of us. 91st Evac was great to us. Sorry you saw so many casualties!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

80% disabled Vietnam veteran here. I worked at a somewhat safe job at Long Binh and served with a couple of WACs. They were always very professional and nice to look at! I visited the 24th Evac while there on one occasion and was treated well by the nurses I encountered. May God bless you angel!

Thank you Lou Eisenbrandt for sharing your experiences in Vietnam. I served with the U. S. Air Force at Danang Airbase, 11/68 - 11/69. I was fortunate that my only needs of medical care in Vietnam were mild compared to those of the ground troops that were in contact with enemy troops on a daily basis. I don't recall meeting a military nurse during my time in Southeast Asia. In April of 1969, our bomb dump caught fire and for three days the explosions continued. Three of our AC-47D Spooky gunships were prepared to evacuate to Chu Lai so that we could provide ground support for the ground troops. I was a crew chief so went with my aircraft when it went to Chu Lai. We spent five days there, our aircraft flying at night and us maintenance troops working on them each day to prepare for another night of providing support for the ground troops. The Marines and Army troops at Chu Lai treated us well while we were there and made sure we ate well and had whatever we needed to keep the aircraft in tip-top shape.

I remember Chief Albanese from my days at LAPD, That unfortunately was an era that won't be repeated in this current regime. Burbank is very lucky. These guys were innovators and set the standard for tactics, training and practices in high risk senerios for years to come. Great to hear is recollections. 2-77

Thank you, Tim and Lou, for an eye-opening interview. Kudos to you both!

Some really brave women, there is a very good book about these women called "THE WOMEN" by Kristin Hannah

Welcome home belatedly to you my fellow soldier and all the brave Vietnam veterans WHOOAH US army infantry

Respect cherries was a awesome and the best man book I have

This a fun interview. Thanks for having me on the podcast.

so many people say it was "hot" dont think people actually understand what that actually means it actually means little untill you understand weather it was a wall of uncomfortabily unconforbility = 1) humidity 2) no wind 3) temp 66F with 80% humidity will make you sweat (you sweat standing still 98f with 17% humidity and light wind is very comfortable (you have to do vigourous exercise to sweat all this is based on the condition in the climate zone you are located in look at climate maps learn about weather

Ty sir. Glad you made it home safely.

WHAT UNIT 101ST?

When I first got there I had a Platoon Sargent for my part of the San Fernando Valley, he was terrible. He ETSed and we got a guy E-5 named believe it or not BOB DILLION. he was on his second tour. First was with the 25th ID, and we were in the 23rd ID... AMERICAL 1st/52nd, 198th LIB. I was his RTO. Man did he untangle us. Thank God. He could see ahead and tell us WTF. we were lucky, I kind of understood why someone would do this twice. I just bought the book

Go Johnny Go!

Welcome home sir, you did a lot of good...72 yo Navy Veteran

Tim I really enjoyed this Behind The Line episode with Travis Yates. I love his passion, commitment and genuine love and care for people. I've listened to all of your podcast and I would have to say this was one of my favorites. Great interview Tim!

I LIVED IN Cam Duc for 4 years!!! I knew there was something going on there but was not sure of what exactly. I know about the old airstrip. I was the security guy in a Gold Room at Phuoc Son Gold mine. 2009 - 2013. The mine was a short drive straight up into the deep thick triple canopy jungle just at the Laos Border. Crazy times and stories I have experienced and heard over my 7 years in country. Anyway, I will not waste anymore time other than to say, this is one of the best interviews I have ever seen from these amazing warriors of the sky. Thank you for all of your service and making time to record your story. I would love to hear more as I know you have tons more. I am... Have been living in Thailand full time since 2013 after my last contract in Vietnam. I would love to take you to lunch if you ever get to Beautiful Gorgeous Bangkok Thailand 🇹🇭 🌺 🌴 🌴 🙏 Thank you. 🙏 🇺🇸

A first rate police officer.

Mr. Barrett’s account of the incident and the loving support of his wife and family are truly amazing. I was fortunately able to have met him in person and his first hand his account. He’ll forever be an inspiration to everyone he came in contact with.

I just heard today that Chris passed away. I knew him very briefly 30+ years ago when we worked for the same company. Nice man from what I knew of him.

Just watch the episode you had with Peff Eick. What a great story he has and a wonderful ministry he he provides to those who have served. Great song also. Thank you and him for your service and the work you continue to do!!

Great interview...I was a tower controler in Can Tho 1970 and 71. In my off time I flew gunner with 16th. Air Cav in OH6A and also with 7th. of the 1st Cav gun ships. You pilots were the best. "Above The Best"

Thanks Tim. This series was extremely well done, and you have developed some excellent skill sets that emerge in these presentations. Having been there that night, this allowed me to collect some of my memories. I especially appreciated being able to listen (again) to the radio traffic that was so befuddling in "real time". This was my first opportunity in 30 years to review it. So here's to Marty, and here's to your guests and the rest of us who were there that night and that make up an unfortunate fraternity within the brotherhood. #200

Well Done! Thank you Aaron Denning for your service and for sharing your story. Stay Safe!

Thanks guys for a well done look back. Tim (Zins), I forgot that you were only 23 that night, as I was 40. It was indeed the most chaotic scene I had ever encountered in my career. I am glad you are doing well, and thank you Tim (Hageman) for doing these podcasts. I see much value in them. Officer Steve - MBPD#200

I finally gave up after a while! I guess I lost my patience with the interview.

The host ask some of the stupidest questions, he really needs to think before he makes these videos.

Is there a part 3?

It’s so important to call out your car stops. I had a guy on my shift back in the day who would go down on a state highway that when thru our township and never called out his stops. It drove me nuts. Regardless, its a tough situation. God bless!

💩🤣 Wow, you have a sense of humor about this! (The poop part was funny 😁)

Wow, I had no idea Pacific Theaters was so ghetto! There were 3 shootings prior to this incident? 😫

Wonderful series. Thank you Tim.

LAPD Peter Weireter brother Steve Weireter worked for LASD homicide unit. He was assigned to help investigate the murder of MBPD officer Martin Ganz.

Tim - you continue to bring on amazing guests. Another great podcast

Another wild one
