My official Army ETS date is today 54 years past. There was a Boston bus strike on this date in '68', so I took a $70 taxi ride from Logan to my home in North Attleboro. I told the taxi diver to drop me a 100 meters from the house and snuck in the back door @ 11am. The house was empty as I recon-ed the AO but eventually I found a door shut and when I opened I found my 10 year truant old sister so shocked she couldn't speak and went back to bed thinking it was a dream....😂
 
Wut? "Mini Mike Melia"?

Well, congrats to you young fella! I left VN 9 days behind you in '68. Got picked up at Logan by my sister, her husband, my wife and 2 yr old son. It was pretty surreal in that I'd flown a hairy 1st UP mission only a couple days before. I felt pretty helpless without my CAR-15, .357 magnum, and M79 not being within reach. Them were the days!
