Looks like the daily burn got a little out of control. I think that's Delmar Cantrell holding the hose. (Ed E)
Here's an updated pic. the guys are playing touch football while Muche delivers a "plain brown paper" package. (Ed E)
This was just outside the sawmill. (Ed E)
Good old Trane compound. Here's where we ate. They provided the best food I ever had in the Army. Remember sitting down and filling out a mimeograph slip for one of the waitresses to bring your meal for lunch and supper? Sometimes there were even Australian nurses to ogle. (Ed E)
I've often wondered what happened to Sgt Mike. I do remember him barking at the Vietnamese trash collectors and them trying to kick him till a couple of us straightened them out. (Ed E)
Remember this caper? Someone who shall ever remain nameless changed the combination, wrote it down, put in in the safe and promptly forgot it. There was a reward of a 3 day pass for anyone who could open the safe but as you can see, no one figured it out.We had to bring in some civilian type with high level clearance to torch it. The interesting thing was that there were thermite grenades inside in case we were over run. :) (Ed E)

Pat Quinn had Charge-of Quarters duty that night...keeping him company was Stan Krick. Apparently they could receive AFVN on the TV in the foreground. Notice the blast tape on the windows of the orderly room.
