Just before the holidays I was able to do another major motion picture. It was the first time doing a flim that I did not wear my own clothes. I was an Air Force Lt. Colonel at a gala in Siagon in 1973. kind of ironic since I was an army medic in Nam, 1969. It was an all night shoot (5pm-5:45am). Depending on what shots they use I should be in a couple of scenes, but you never know. I heard it was a King Kong movie, but can't figure out how King Kong fits into Viet Nam in 1973. I am try to get more info from friends who were on the set. A long night but met great people again and still fun.

Nice Olivia you'll; have to keep us informed and let us in on the name of the movie so we can see if we can catch a glimpse of you. The closest I ever came to movies was one time I met a guy who worked as a gaffer on movie sets lol.

Thanks Sarah Beth! It takes a long time from filming to release so this one is scheduled for early 2017. But Mike and Dave need Wedding Dates should be out in July this year. Later Gator!!

Wow, that's neat Donna. What did u do? Funny, in 73 I was out if work with a toddler and a pregnant wife and went to an Air Force recruiter. He looked at my DD214 and said he couldn't take me. I asked why and he rattled off my reenlistment code. I asked what it meant. Again I asked what it meant. Again he said he couldn't take me. So I stood up, grabbed the card out of his hand, and said, "I didn't want to join the f***ing Air Force anyway." I think the#'s meant this man's crazy and don't let him back in anywhere.
