This is the section of my trip in 2008. My grandson Dylan went with me for a few weeks and we spent the time at the beach in Danang, Hoi An and Mui Ne. We also went up to the DMZ because he wanted to see the tunnels at Vinh Moc. Actually he wanted to see the caves up at Ha Long Bay but he mixed up the names when he was researching. Still we got to see the DMZ. Please write if you wish. I love these contacts I make here.

My name is Henry Bechtold and I live now, as I have for most of my life, in Beautiful Bucks County, in Southeastern Pennsylvania. Just north of Philadelphia, along the Deleware River. I was in Vietnam from September of 1967 till September of 1968. Stationed at Long Binh, RSVN. Most of my time was with the 572nd trans company but I spent some time with the 10th trans, 534th trans and the 543rd trans which was at the OK Coral in Thu Duc. I returned to Vietnam in 1969, 2001, 2003, and most recently, in February and March of 2006. This site is about my trip in 2006. There are also some pages, in the links to the left, which will take you through my 2001 and 2003 trips and there you will find some photos and stories about my time in 1967 - 68.
