I was in Signal Platoon-244SAC-and I recall vividly the Mars station at CanTho-it was right across the street from our barracks-We would stay up til 3AM some mornings in order to place calls back to the world. One of my favorite places-and they always had cold Cokes there for us-to be sold at a profit-of course. When I got back to the States-was stationed at Ft Wainwright AK-and spent TDY at the Mars station in Ft Greeley-(AB7WAI)-spent many a night talking to the CanTho operators from my Alaskan site. Patched many a call home through Greeley. Yes-there was DEFINATELY a Mars Station at CTH
