email - 12 May, 2010 About a year or so ago a friend I was in Vietnam with called me, we called him Ski. His name was Joe Losiowski, his name was too long to say. We have been in touch since then, he sent me some pictures of some Marines having Christmas dinner --cooking out --and two Marines having breakfast in the back of a truck. I'm the Marine having breakfast with you. Bruce Distel, Portsmouth Ohio. The web site is really great . The picture of you sitting next to the tire --I'm sure I took that picture, I have one with me standing next to same tire.......Alive and well....Semper Fi ..Bruce
