I remember the Christmas specials Hope used to put on for the troops. Good stuff.

Here's a picture my dad gave me - a friend of his took this in '66-'67 when they were both in 'the Nam'.

That's Bob on the left.

Bob Hope has always been a favorite of mine.
After all, his last name and mine are identical....

There is no entertainment that come close to Hope's generation. Sinatra, Dino, Rickles, Wayne, Stewart. Just watch Laugh In or the old Roast shows. Nothing like it today.

Watching the Bob Hope specials during the 60's was as much a part of our family's tradition as putting up our Christmas tree. Thanks for sharing this fantastic find!

I've got some pics somewhere from attending a show in Saigon in '72. Miss America came to my company that year also; have pic with her. Very nice stuff. With all the folks that were against the war, these folks and Martha Raye still stand out in my mind as supporting the troops during RVN.

Here's a pic with her. Don't know if I've scanned the others.

Best,

Dave

I found Miss America for that year.
