Remember being "short" and taking No chances in injun country cuz you
were close to DEROS, had it dicked, and before you didi mau'd outta
there you didn't want no numbah ten dinky dau ****ing with you?
Or marking the days off a calendar in your wallet/cutting those last 30
links off your dog tags, one at a time?
Chao Co, dude.

Oh yes. And R&R. And hollering WORKING, while talking on the land
line. C-rats in the messhall. LRP-rats - if you could sawp for them..
MREs. And, all the really lousy beer that was all that was available,
because all the good stuff was kept in Saigon.

I babysat some equipment to Saigon once. Got in the NCO mess and
they had lobster and steak. First off, couldn't believe it, then
couldn't make up my mind, so the cook said I could have both. In our
mess it was regular C-rats, and really old roast beef - seldom steak,
and never, ever, anything as exotic as lobster. Saigon warriors.

If you can't say anything nice about someone, you must be talking about
Hilary Clinton.
