I flew a desk also. Was also in personnel. Moved a lot of guys to Vietnam. Hope they all survived. I almost went too. Had orders to go to Cam Ranh. Cancelled at the last minute. Guess, some guy reenlisted and I was no longer needed. Only flew on an Air Force plane one time. Went from Niagara Falls, NY to Wright-Patterson AFB to the hospital there. They thought I needed surgery, but it turned out that I didn't so they sent me back to Niagara. It was just a mini vacation for me.
