My brother was at Phu Bai with the HMM-364th Purple Foxes Marine Squadron 1967-1968. I was Air Force at the time. He flew the CH47 Chinook helicopters. He made it back to the states and was killed in a training crash out of Pensacola Naval Air Station with a student.

Landed in Bien Hoa in March 69. We were greeted by a tarp and water tank in over 100 degree weather and I was scared as hell. Left for An Khe and other fire bases two days later. My first day in An Khe we were hit by a sapper unit. Some of the guys I came in country with didn't make it. When I returned to Bien Hoa a year later it seemed huge. Still a 122mm rocket almost got me before I was able to leave. We departed from a new, air conditioned terminal.

@hutchfromba More like they should use "Feels like Heaven" by Fiction Factory
You should use a background song "WE GOT TO GET OUT OF THIS PLACE. IF IT'S THE LAST THING WE EVER DO" It played day and night from 1970 to 1972 .

@CharlesStanleySucks You weren't their were you ? Your talking about an 80's song . We , who were lucky enough to make it out alive were all gone by 1975 . PS "Phu Bai might have been alright but it was very , very far from Heaven"
