Welcome Home to all you guys. Vietnam 67' 68' here. I'm a member of the CVMA for over 11 years now and we ride for vets. We have raised 100's of thousands of dollars to help Vets. Google CVMA you may like to join us. No prospecting to do. You earned the right to be patched in by serving your country in a Combat Zone. We are not a M/C but have many friends that are. But don't join for the awesome bad ass patch, but join to help out our brother vets in need! You are free to ride and do as you like, not forced to do anything! Well worth looking into. In the picture I'm the guy on the bottom left with the hat on.Thanks again for your service! Bob

Long story short I was Blue Tagged, do not to this day no what (Blue Tagged) means from going to Vietnam. I was stationed at Camp Pendleton after ITR and BST I got orders to go to Nam. Got all the shots training including warfare school sent civilian gear home, standing in line to board the bus Name was called Blue tagged to MCAS Eltoro Calif,, I had two brothers over there One Marine scout in Nam One in the air force working crash and recovery out of Thailand. Than you to all the Vets for your service.
You most likely were Not sent to Nam because of the 5 Sullivans [Brothers] rule....:Shrug:
I kind of thought that But why did they call it Blue Tag?
Was a Machinist Mate on a tender in Italy (Tidewater AD31) in '67, wanted off and put in a request for 'Nam
They shot it down saying I was designated 'critical rate'.....was very pissed about that for years, much later realized just how lucky I was.
Never knew MM's were critical rate....or even what critical rate was! Think they were making stuff up to fit the situation sometimes. :Shrug:
