That much I gathered from the back of the photo, which accompanied a July 1968 Sport magazine story headlined "Deep in the Heart of Rangoon." A little digging finally led me here: to a day-by-day account of the Tornado's 1967-'68 world tour -- including a stop in Saigon right before the Tet Offensive. Finally, my book.
