Even More Memory Joggers From Frank Venters
\./0.0\./
Frank's photos help recall the daily life in Ban Takhli (Takhli City) as well as that on the base itself. Takhli was a very rural town before the arrival of the US Forces, hence the many photos of buffalos and cows are typical. Frank and I took photos that are eerily similar of the same scene, different years.
