10.14.10 : Phu Bai, Camp Eagle, and High Van Pass – *means cloud and sky

10.14.10 : Phu Bai, Camp Eagle, and High Van Pass – (named cloud and sky)

“Camp Eagle is known as the land of the dead,” said Charlie Forsyth. 

The former Area of Operations (AO) is now a graveyard. 

We gathered at Phu Bai for all soldiers who did not come home from Viet Nam. 

 By this time in our trip, it's clear that we need to bring this reconciliation 

back to all veterans at home.  

Tom, Charlie, Ron, Joe and Ralph can now tell their stories of healing 

to everyone suffering from the impact of war, and ready to come home. 

WELCOME HOME!

High Van Pass, hence why it is named cloud and sky!

"Now we're shooting pictures," says Charlie Forsyth about his return to Viet Nam; this time it was a peaceful journey.

High Van Pass is a place the Marines with us remember. 

We are close to Marble Mountain, Hill 55, Chau Son Village, and Dodge City. 

We are entering into territory where Tom Saal and Charlie Forsyth 

were stationed during the war.

Our driver passed other vehicles and negotiated hairpin turns as we 

saw some of the most beautiful vistas of the East Sea, 

(what we call the South China Sea) and the lush mountainous terrain. 

It's hard to imagine someone decided this was a place to go to war – 

it is breathtaking as the clouds roll in on us at 1500ft above sea level.
