.I knew few of the guys before the being assigned to new barracks, especially the kid who wrote "eat me" on the cap. Sadly, we hitched into Saigon and settled for French food instead. He had never been to the Saigon zoo so did not know we had to feed the animals on our own.
We had just time left in Vietnam, so we did not rent a hotel room, or see a movie. Too dangerous, and too close to finally leaving Southeast Asia. I wish I saved bis eat me cap because he left first.
