I served in the Navy on board the light cargo ship USS Mark (AKL-12) as the ship's yeoman. We delivered ammunition and supplies to many of the Army and Navy bases along the larger rivers of the Mekong Delta.

Here is a picture of me inside the ship's office taken in November 1970.

This is one of only two photos that I have of my tour in Vn. At the time of this photo I was assigned to 557th MP Co, Long Binh, RVN. My rank was Spec4, MOS 95B20.

John,

I took the one large picture and divided it into 2
pictures - John3.jpg and John2.jpg.

Here is the web address for each one...

Each picture is still pretty large, but I think they will
look O.K. on the BBS.

This is the only other picture I have of me from my tour in Vn. I was with B/720th MP Bn when this was taken. The photo was taken at the motorpool. This was when we had convoy duty. That's an APC next to me...I think! Also...I believe I am holding a M-16 in right hand. MOS 95B10

I hope y'all don't mind if I put my baby brother's pic here below mine. I know he's not on the board but, I keep trying to get him here. This was taken in/near Michelin Rubber Plantation. Rick was with the 25th Inf Div from Jan 68-Dec 68. I'm not sure of his rank at this particular time. He was a 2nd Lt. when he got there and a 1st Lt when he left.

Larry,

I don't think anyone minds that you post a picture of the
brother your so proud of and rightfully so.

Wish he would come on the board with us, I need someone
else to pick on, don't you think?????

Shadow,

In order to post a picture, you have to have the picture (usually a jpeg file) at a location that is available at all times - like the file servers of your Internet Service Provider.

If you need help, just email me at stanlambert@prodigy.net and I will get you fixed up in no time.

Welcome aboard.

Welcome to TFF and thank-you for your service Jim. I spent my time in the Corps working on the Hornets, but I fell in love with jets in my early years, namely the Phantom. Beautiful in my opinion; ugly as sin when it comes to glideslope ratio though,
