I looked at some of the other pictures on your flickr page.
Did you caption this, is someone just very naive? Anyone else have different thoughts about this? :-) https://www.flickr.com/photos/harryk...7680813729976/ Mikek |

Do you get the satire, or does it have to be explained to you? |

LMAO! Thailand was a favorite R&R spot, but mostly for unmarried folks. For us married guys, the Army would fly the wives round trip from the west coast to Hawaii, and fly the soldier to Hawaii for a week's R&R. Made for a nice break. |

Not comfortable, but cheap enough. |

Every other time I flew was on a commercial or chartered civilian airline. And I can not remember being on a MAC flight on those hops. |

Every other time I flew was on a commercial or chartered civilian airline. And I can not remember being on a MAC flight on those hops. Many of those stationed in Puerto Rico would grab a MAC flight (when available) out of Roosevelt Roads when going on leave back to the states. They were free but on a space available basis only. When we left Italy (my ship was homeported in Naples) with our then 2 month old daughter, we flew commercial to France and then on to the USA. I thought there was a mistake in the tickets they got us because they bought three seats. Infants usually traveled free back then but had to held in your lap. I was concerned that maybe I'd have to pay back the cost of the third seat but in an unusual act of consideration, the Navy realized it was a long flight and we'd probably appreciate having three seats, one to put the kid in a baby basket thing during the flight. |

Not comfortable, but cheap enough. No, no. We had chartered commercial jets for those trips. Of course, MAC paid the money, but there were no C-141s involved. To and from Puerto Rico we rode C-124s. I think my trips to and from Vietnam were all 707's, even those to Hawaii and back. |
