      Herbkilmer@reagan.com Same question. Arrived DaNang Dec 65 on some sort of floating drydock ship with a load of swift and PT boats from Subic Bay. Worked out of the White Elephant and slept on a couple of diferent ships. Slept in troupe quarters with salt water showers. Records show I was transferred on to the USS Hitchiti in DaNang harbor on March 1, 1966. Records show leaving San Francisco Dec. 1965. No records between. Need to show boots on ground, medical issues.
