| 'Stan Tour - Day 6 - Chinooks and FOB Salerno. |
| First Chinook ride to Camp Salerno; Stranded at Camp Salerno; tried to bribe the Illinois National Guard Chinook group to fly us back, but they were unable to. The Salerno people put us up in the VIP B-huts. After the show, we had burgers from the Burger Hut. Salerno is a blackout camp, no lights after dark. The stars in the sky were amazing, the most stars we've ever seen. |
