Ascout is back from mega-trip around the Pacific. More to follow, but here is an interesting pic....Mr. Le Van Ba of the village established at the former site of Firebase Birmingham near Hue. I was walking up the trail to the firebase when we heard Mr. Ba's scooter putt'in' up the trail (pretty much to find out what we were up to). He's a former ARVN adviser to Americans operating in the area, since "re-educated" and now the village (read: "Party") official. He gave us a good tour via the shortcuts, we swapped stories over tea (in the hootch behind us there) and generally had a good time. As I get my pics compiled, I'll show you some "then and now" stuff of this area...

Good to be home for now, though... Laughing
