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!
