The first part of this post is a re-post, from Sat Apr 21, 2007
as a reminder of what Everyone should be watching tomorrow night.
That is if you've got the Sundance Channel. If not find a friend who does and invite others, have a Gathering of Action!
Now if you know any Active Military Personal, pass this on to them especially if they haven't seen either of these fine documentaries.
A 'Special Treat' for those of us 'Nam Vets and 'Nam Era, old folk now all, follows the re-post. Found this in my In-Box this morning, a little hint "Goooood Morning Vietnam"!

NOW The 'Nam Era Treat!!
The following is part of the E received this morning:
Hi Everyone......
I told you, that unless something happened monumental that I would not have the time to send out e-mails to the size of what we have not on the VIP list. But... this is monumental.
About a month ago, Will Snyder was contacted by a guy by the name of Tim Mailhot, who was in the Air Force from 1973 to 1977. Sometime during this period, Tim became friends with a guy by the name of Bruce Causey, who had a reel to reel of the only know recorded show of Radio First Termer.... and it was COMPLETE. Tim made a copy.... and somewhere down the way, was put away.... along with his reel to reel deck. Fast forward to April 2007.... Time does a search for Radio First Termer.... finds the Radio First Termer Home Page, contacts Will Snyder and informs him that he has a Reel to Reel and that he just got it fixed and could make a digital copy of the tape he has. Tim sends to Will..... Will does some audio editing to rid some of the minor hiss... turns it into a .wav file.... sends it to me.... I do some editing.... and ladies and gentlemen..... we NOW have one of the HIGHEST QUALITY RECORDINGS of the only know recorded show.
I now have the 48 KBPS STEREO up on my POM Home Page.
Dave Rabbit Podomatic
Will Snyder, in the next 7 days or less, will have BOTH the 48 KBPS STEREO and the 192 KBPS STEREO versions available on the RFT Home Page.
Radio First Termer
BUT.... if you just can't wait (and it is awesome compared to what has been previously heard)... I have included the LINKS to the YOU SEND IT FILES that you can DOWNLOAD DIRECTLY from their site. The only downside to this is that my free account with them only allows for 100 DOWNLOADS of EACH FILE..... so..... obviously FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED {and when I went in seems the 100 got there first, but No Problem} would be the situation here. The 48 KBPS STEREO on POM will remain there forever.... and once Will gets them up on the Home Page... will remain there forever also.
It was really a trip listening to it as it was originally broadcasted...... the existing one that has been in circulation for 36 years or so that is up now..... has about 10 to 15 missing minutes that can NOW be HEARD again for the very first time.
Please pass this great information along to anyone you know who is a fan of the show. Also, please remember that this is FREE and you are welcome to rebroadcast, post or refer to it on your own sites, shows or whatever.
Thanks to all of you who made this past year something very special for me.
Peace!
Dave
And from Daves 'First Termer Site' the Warning and info:
WARNING – EXPLICIT LANGUAGE
This Is Made Possible By The Contributions Of
Tim Mailhot & Bruce Causey
This HIGH QUALITY DIGITAL VERSION Of The Original Saigon, Vietnam Show Is Made Possible By The High Quality Reel To Reel Tape That Tim Mailhot Sent To Will Snyder From The Tape That He Acquired From Bruce Causey Sometime In The Early 70’s And Will Converted. Since The Show Was Originally Broadcasted In January 1971, This Is The Highest Quality And Most Complete Version Ever To Surface. There Are A Number Of Segments That Have Never Been Heard Before In Their Entirety.
This is PART 1 of 4 of one of my 21 Pirate Radio Broadcasts that was done from a Whore House in Downtown Saigon, Vietnam from January 1 to January 21, 1971. It is the only KNOWN recorded show from that period of time. These recordings contain EXPLICIT MATERIAL, HARD ACID ROCK MUSIC and COMMENTS about the issues of the times which were SEX, DRUGS and ROCK and ROLL. These shows were created for the entertainment of the troops that put their lives on the line EVERY DAY in Vietnam and were part of the huge Anti-War movement which was happening within the military itself against the war in Vietnam.
The following link gives you the page with All 4 parts of the broadcast, I'm on part four now {hey I get up real early in my old age, something to look forward to you youngsters}. Scroll down and just 'Click on the Play Button', than return to site for each part to Listen to some Great Sounds and Historic Commentary, A Blast From The Past
The Radio First Termer Saigon, Vietnam 1971 Part 1 to Part 4 Original 1971 Saigon Show, from the Whore House, with other Podcasts as well as one of the 2006 Iraq Show when Dave took up the Mick again to broadcast to our present generation In-Country Iraq Debacle Military Personal!

And here's another treat coming from Thomas over at G.I. Special - Militay Project in the latest edition of the underground newsletter Volume: 5E Issue: 6
Not Worth Dying For in PDF
This is part of a May 2007 page in a mail order catalog that is aimed at working class families in the USA called “Things You Never Knew Existed.” Lots of pages feature items of special interest to people of Irish and Italian descent, and other traditional communities.
Until this latest catalog, there had also been a heavy load of super-patriot pro-Bush pro-war items, along with the battery operated giant spiders and sneezing powder.
Looks like the corporation selling this shit figured out times have changed, and they need something new to bring in the money. Guess the George W. Bush coffee mugs aren’t doing so well anymore.
This Debacle Must End, And Now!!
We've already passed the point of No Blowback, these Failed Policies have put Us, and the Rest of The World, on a footing of continuing 'Criminal Terrorists Actions' for the forseable future. The only way to minimize the possibility of same is for the People to come together and find the Tolerance and Solutions to that which our Governments have wrought!
Those who have brought on the Extremely Deadly Failed Policies Must Be Brought To Justice, Period!!
Indictments must be forthcoming and all the proof of the lies and corruption made public, for the World to see, and this Country to Start following the Path it likes to think it stands for, in words only, in Real Actions that those words describe!
