The only thing that would come close would be when I had to tow this guy from 24th Supply Squadron in his VW. We must have backed traffic up all the way from the bridge to 4th of July Avenue!

Thanks so much for stopping by and for your comments. Yes, if I happen to come across your uncle’s name I will let you know and keep you updated. I will also keep you posted on this documentary I am involved with about this battle. Thanks again for stopping by and for purchasing a copy of War Remains.

I was doing some internet research on my granduncle James Harget (RA16308430) and ran across your work. Uncle Jimmy was in C CO 1/38 REGT 2ID. He survived the day but was taken prisoner and died on Sept 9, 1951 in either Camp 1 or Camp 5. My family was contacted for a DNA sample so it appears Jimmy may be heading home someday.

I just ordered War Remains from Amazon and look forward to reading it plus keeping up on any updates you provide.

Thank you so much for your work and if you happen across Jimmy’s name would please forward that information to me. I would be forever grateful.

Again, thank you so much for caring,
Doug Mayes

Thanks for stopping by and your comments. I was always an Ovalo Man and also preferred the Black Paris and further on down the street, The Foxhole. I was like a heat sinking missile as soon as I got off the Chiva or Canal Zone bus in front of the Ancon–aimed right for the Ovalo (which was the first bar I ventured in my first time downtown). I always liked the two “bars” inside. Lots of room to move. Thanks again for chiming in and sharing your memories.

The ‘catwalk’ dance-stage at the Ovalo. As I recall, the Ovalo ladies were a bit ‘huskier’ than the Ancon girls. (BTW: None were ever as ‘hot’ as the girls in the P.I.! Ahhhh… the Silver Peso in Angeles City.) But I digress. Back to Panama: Unfortunately, as an officer on a night out with ‘the troops’ I had to maintain a certain decorum that precluded taking full advantage of the available amenities. My ‘usual’ was a Balboa (or three, or four); never had the Ron Anything although I like rum, but had to abstain from the strong stuff – again, the decorum thiing. The Ancon was off-limits for quite a while after some kind of explosive was found in the rest-room; …maybe what caused the fire?

I also agree with you about the paper route. The better off customers were always late with their payments and I would have to pay out of my pocket.

If I am not mistaken, that bar was off limits. Larry Easterly took a bunch of us new guys there one night. Larry loved to push the envelope when it came to going out in Panama City.

Sorry for the loss of your father. I knew a lot of guys who had been in Vietnam before they came to Howard.
