And he claimed that 'He is in charge' !!! He was in the White House press room the day of the shooting, answering questions about what had happened, the President's condition, etc...not really able to give much information. Neither the Vice President, nor the Speaker were available to answer questions. One reporter asked, 'Who's in charge, right now?' And Haig answered, "I am." Understandable. But he should have said some thing like "Vice President Herbert Herbert Bush is remaining in constant contact while traveling post haste to White House Command Central, where I am holding down the fort". |

You don't think the JFK assassination was a coup? No way, the simpler and obvious explanation is often the most truthful. Maybe you, Oliver Stone and lots of conspiracy-crazed weirdos think it really was a coup. |

Joined the U.S.Army, we were not drafted.We both were in Vietnam at the same time, in 1964.I once caught the Chaplin Run (after getting permission from my Company Commander, of course) one Sunday morning to go visit my brother (he was eight years older than I) at Vung Tau,Vietnam.He was a Helicopter Mechanic at Vung Tau. Mrs.Sullivan (The Fighting Sullivans) had been hearing rumors around town for some that her five sons had been killed in action before the U.S.Navy broke the news to her. cuhulin |

I meant to say he was in great shape throughout his entire life. And he passed away very shortly after checking into a hospital that declared his condition incurable. This was in June1940. Almost 70 years ago. Wonder if the Fall of France was making him worse. |

Short Take off and Landing, Airplane, by the way) I hopped on from Shannon Wright Compound, near Vin Long, to Vung Tau.From Vung Tau, a Helicopter to Soc Trang.I had to wait a couple of hours in Soc Trang to catch another Helicopter going to Shannon Wright Compound.I liked those U.S.Army Turboprop Airplanes.

I used to bring her sandwiches and Shasta (It Hasta be Shasta!) grape soda pop, she liked grape.Her sister worked at the bar in a hotel just up the street on the corner.I used to stop off there and drink a big glass of Elephant's milk,,, GOOD stuff, Elephant's milk is. cuhulin |
