John,
This was not on 123.3 but still, at the time got everybody's attention. While on final approach to Saigon in the late 60's on a Braniff Int. Airlines - some will remember the wild plane paint jobs and Flight Attendants Uniforms. From the cockpit one of the pilots reported the temperature and humidity in Saigon, both were high, then said. "...and the ground fire is light to moderate." It was very quiet for a few moments and then there was the sound of forced laughter. Great way to arrive!!!

Those freedom-bird flights were much anticipated and appreciated! I escaped Nam on a DC-8.............quiet as a mouse till we broke ground, then the whole plane erupted into a crescendo of YEAH BABBY, WE MADE IT OUT ALIVE!
Thanks,
