I probably have a picture in the archives of an O2, we had a bunch of them in Bien Hoa.  Had a chance to go up with a pilot one day, but couldn't get in toudh with my boss to clear.  Stayed on the ground.  He yelled at me, don't miss it if you have a chance, just let me know later.  Never had another chance.

Bien Hoa was May to Nov 70.  Then went up to DaNang for the rest of tour.  I was in the 303rd MMS.  (ammo), mostly worked on the flight line at Munitions Control. 

We just missed.

If I remember correctly, MMS had a good little bar at the base of the tower.

Maybe then?  We had a great little bar upstairs at our barracks, complete with 2 barmaids.  NothingI was aware of on the flightline. We also had some great steak and beer parties paid for by the proceeds at the coffee/soda bar at the bomb dump.  Some old tech sgt was amazing at trading. One party we had all the beer you could drink, steak, a cornish game hen, hamburgers hot dogs, a band and some intereting entertainemnt.  Ironically, we are going thru pictures to keep or toss and that party was among the group.
