I was on Kwajalein 1960 - 1962 and my mother claimed that of all the places we lived Kwaj was her favorite. It was probably due to the fact that with no TV on the island people socialized much more in that people were always over at the house chatting or they were over at theirs. We lived about three houses from "Bunker Hill" on the north tip of the island on the lagoon side. My next experience with a tropical paridise 4 years after we left was with the 4th Marine Regiment in Vietnam.

Just had to mention this. One day a C5A buzzed the island unannounced. Seemed like it blotted out the sun, low and hard. It did land on Kwaj. with Westmoreland and his entourage aboard.

We were actually in the middle of a softball game when that behemoth came overhead, and yes, we all ducked.

The next day Westmoreland popped his head into my office and said, "Nice, nice, carry on".

I was listening to a Miami Dolphins game at the time, and way too busy to be impressed.

lyllydd: Amazing enough that you remember anything at that age.

Who did your dad work for? I was Raytheon.

I was 25 years old and I never felt more free, not even to this day.

Of course, you must realize that most of us were "long-haired freaks" with more free SE Asian weed than we could deal with. And just what Mother Nature had to do with it....no additives!!

Watchihg UFOs chase our camera strobes was a trip.

And the stars,...oh my God, the stars!!

Moonless nights...
