round eyes and the big BX. After volunteering for Vietnam I found
myself questioning my mental condition. Leaving the US of A for sleeping
in a tent and eating C-rats, bathing in a river filled with excrement.
Things got better once the Captain (Sullivan) got us into barracks built
for the civilian workers who were building a runway. Then the kennel
came and we no longer had to fight with cobras in our dog\'s shipping
crate. Then Carabos came and the lag time for mail decreased. Things
were good, and to top it off Capt Sullivan got us access to the civilian
chow hall, what a change, even gained 20lbs. That all changed with the
USAF chow hall opening, back down 20lbs. Now I\'m 40lbs over weight!
