13. I've felt it'd be fascinating to go back for a visit for many years.
The scuttlebutt about Long Binh Post when I was there was that it's be used as a university after we left. I think it'd be interesting to see if it got used at all and for what. I had a great deal of respect for all the people with I came in contact. They modeled a kind of self-esteem (honor) that has fascinated me ever since - based not much on what they DID or much on what they HAD, but on WHO they were. I suspect it's the Buddhist influence.

I'd be fascinated to see even more of the country than I did. What I saw was (other than the war damage and debris) really beautiful. I'd love to see Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) again and wander the streets. I'd really want to visit Vung Tau and enjoy the beach.
