Personal photos/text taken in/out of Vietnam combat zone from perspective of copilot on USAF C-130 345th Tactical Airlift Crew. Not just about the war, but also about the people/places of the region during 1972. This is where I got my first Nikon film SLR which turned into lifelong passion albeit now Canon digital SLR. The photos are recent digital scans from old 35mm slides wasting away in hot/cold attic for 40 years. Extensive Photoshop editing has been used to make them somewhat presentable.

Grandfather on bike
What appears to be a grandfather in Sunday finest suit chauffeuring grandson on a well-seasoned, single-speed bicycle … the vehicle of choice for most common folks who could not afford cars. Looks as though child is calling for a left turn; perhaps they are on the way to a birthday party with nicely wrapped present in front basket. Older wooden building in background in of need repair had typical clay tiled roof. About 1971 somewhere in Taiwan.
