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.

Stop and Shop Taiwan Style 1972
I think these are a few shops that lined the short stretch of main road leading from CCK Airbase (home of C-130s) to downtown Taichung, Taiwan - 1972. No autos but the usual assortment of bikes, mopeds, motorcycles, animal and tractor drawn carts. Men appear to be muscling around large sacks ... probably rice.
