Our three-part chopper pilot and donut dolly romance story comes to an end as does Doug Murray’s run as the writer of The ‘Nam with issue #51, “Stone Age,” which has art by Herb Trimpel.

A dear friend once said to me: “It’s a lot of fun when everyone’s a dork of some sort or another.” As I look back on my life as a dork, I realize that not only have I geeked out, but not in the right way.
