Another Anniversary - AFVN - 1973


I received a reminder from the operator of the main online newsgroup for Vietnam Vets who worked for Armed Forces Vietam Network (Radio and TV). Today is the 35th anniversary of closing of AFVN.

Last person on the air was the station commander LTC Paul Hutchison.
Last radio news was done by SP4 Tom Fowlston.
Last TV newscast was done by SP5 Bob Morecook (who is also the aformentioned newsgroup operator).

I did TV news for AFVN for half of my year-long tour 1970-71 at Detachment 5 in Quang Tri.
