Paris, Eiffel Tower from Chaillot, Spring 1969 (024 b)

The trip to Paris was the only time I went on an organized tour. The USO had organized a bus tour to Paris for men from my base. Luckily I had a friend on the tour who was raised speaking French (he was from the French-Canadian part of Maine), so we took the bus and did some parts of the organized tour but managed to do a fair amount of exploring on our own as well. Since very few pictures from that trip were worth restoring, the pictures below do not represent the amount that we explored Paris.

Pictures in this set (Military Years) are from when I was in the military, from 1967-1970. All photos were originally slides, a friend spent very many hours restoring those slides to being viewable. Best viewed as part of the Military Years set.
