Actually, it acted as a "way station" for most serving in the SE Asian wars. This wasn't an exclusive Yank club. I believe that the fighting Aussies made it there home away from home. You think back and how this all got started. By 1969, the BKK "districts" were just getting up steam - than came Pattaya, the navy haunt. Well established bar areas upcountry around the American air bases.......

I would love to see an up to date picture of these gorgeous ladies now, I was 28 at the time.
