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 and now in October/November of 2003.

Here are some of the 720 photos I took in Oct/Nov 2003.

Please sign my guest book and send an email if you wish.

On my last trip I took someone I met through my web site. He wanted to go back but not alone. So I got to be tourist and tour guide. It was a wonderful trip and he said he is glad he went and feels much better for having gone. It is a theraputic trip for veterans.

When you are done here there is a site with a great book. The book is called A long way from Saigon. It is a story about one persons experiences during the war and beyond from a view point that we don't often hear. If you stop by I think you will be pleased.
