Hello all, I just joined the Forum after seeing all of the stuff about Bob Hillerby. I am Dan Brookes, Bob's co-author of the book we'd been working on for over two years now. Bob was a dear friend. We served together in Vietnam with the 69th Signal Battalion. Bob, as most of you know, spent most of his time in the field, a lot of it with the 1st Cavalry. I was the "lab rat" that Bob mentioned in some of his posts and spent most of my time at Camp Gaylor, Tan Son Nhut AFB in Saigon and later upcountry in Cam Ranh Bay. Our book, "Shooting Vietnam" is still on track and I hope to have it completed in a month or so. We are still shopping for publishers but have a friend and literary agent helping us. In addition to Bob's and my own story, we've managed to get eight other guys to write about their experiences also, almost all of them as combat photographers. My greatest regret is that Bob didn't live to see the completed project. I am still working with his family to finish up some details of his story. I'll keep you all posted on our progress as this gets wrapped up. Thanx for all the welcome comments and support you gave Bob during his time on the Forum. Dan Brookes
