Thanks for the MRE's,indeed. Mr Hope can have my pork patty and Ranger Cookie anyday. You heard how his pneumonia recovery is progressing? My bet is that he'll be in front of some bunch of US troops somewhere around this Christmastime, even if he can't make it overseas, if he's even slightly mobile.
Spatzie gets the leftover C-ration Ham and Lima beans, though....

I loved when Bob Hope sang the White Christmas song. I was in his tour for two trips 1969 and 1970...then I did a third in 72. I was there. You might have a picture of me. I was there,also Saigon , Da Nang and several other places.
From my profile page.......
I was with the Bob Hope Holiday USO tour to Lai Khe during the Viet Nam War, he had several people that you might have heard of I am sure : Les Brown " and his band of renoun" , Connie Stevens, Theressa Graves, Neil Armstrong and the Gold Diggers etc. ( and lil ole me. LOL ) .
On Christmas Eve, we traditionally closed our show with the cast and troops in singing "Silent Night." There in Vietnam, in the muddy, battle-scarred camps where we played to jam-packed audiences, "Silent Night" became one of the most poignant and meaningful songs we joined in singing.
You can read more about it at my Profile page that I did to try and honor you and all the Vietnam vets.
God bless you and Welcome Home , I thank you with all my heart for serving this country and keeping me free.

Bob Hope would LOVE to go see the troops. His heart is with each one in the millitary, we can bet the house on that.He listens to everything he can about what is happening I am sure.
