Veteran Norman recalls Vietnam draft and service
Robert Norman, 21, from Texas, recalls being drafted in 1968 after business degree studies. He spent a year in Vietnam with Chu Lai perimeter defense and night patrols, losing two comrades and seeing many wounded. He later earned a law degree via veterans benefits, saying the experience broadened him but did not greatly alter his political views.

The California Water Project Scale and Costs
The plan would move about 4.23 million acre feet of water annually, costing Northern District water at $17 per acre foot and Southern District at $90. Evaporation losses are estimated at 4.4 percent, enough to supply Sacramento for three years and fill 1.4 million pools. Twenty-one dams will form a 496 mile shoreline. Oroville Dam tops at 770 feet. Aqueducts, canals, and tunnels total 885 miles of canal with 78 miles of pipeline and 31 miles of tunnel. The system requires 22 pumping plants totaling 3.85 million horsepower to lift water from the Delta over the mountains.
