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.

Saigon Ramp Activity
A large folk lift rushing by in blur in front of a parked C-130-E on the ramp at Tan Son Nhut Airbase, Saigon, Vietnam - 1972.
Looks like one of our AWADS planes (see SKE radome) TDY from Little Rock AFB summer of 72.
