It was the Loon Foon when I was there in 1970. At other times it was called the Mandarin House. By whatever name, it was where I learned to use chopsticks, a skill I value to this day.
Loon Phoons was the name of the restaurant at Long Binh. It's been a while, so my spelling may be off, but that's how it was pronounced. Peace Brother & Welcome Home.
Most of the time I was stationed at Phu Loi and would go down for lunch at the Chinese restaurant at Long Binh. In November or December, 1969, I joined Long Binh Square and Compass Club. I'm a life member, but could only go the one time.
Vietnam and US is like an old marriage, you can't live with it but you can't live without it either. Us is back in Vietnam of this 21 century to fight the same evil communist force, China.
