15 Feb 2007 I am a former bunkmate of SP4 John Otake from Honolulu, Hawaii. I would like to be contacted by someone who served with him in Vietnam. He was in country very briefly. If memory serves me right it was about 2 to 4 weeks. Thank you very much. From a friend, Keith Tsubata tsubata.keith@dol.gov
