IN HONOR/MEMORY OF ARNIE NAKKERUD - A1E - SQUASH - (CASSEROLE DISH) -ONIONS

 


A fellow classmate graduating with the WORWAC class of 66-17. A close friend who is always remembered and honored this day. "You are not forgotten, Arnie."

Your friendship, your antics, your zest for living life and stories still close to my heart. I'd never ever seen a fellow catch a can of cold beer thrown from a convertible at 60 mph while riding a Honda motorcycle. Yes, we were crazy, admittedly so. We were all going to Vietnam. Love ya, brother!!

Phan Thiet, South Vietnam 1967

Always had my camera in hand. Every kind of airplane and helicopter imaginable were always coming and going from the small airport where we were operating out of. This A1E has always been a favorite of mine. I would run to the runway to capture photos of these when ever I heard or saw one circling for a landing. Ohhhh how I would love a ride!!
