Sample Book Insights: #1 I was excited to be heading to Vietnam, where I would be able to find answers to my many questions about war and my role in it. I was surprised at the number of lights below. I had always thought that a war zone would be blacked out, but the jewels of lights spread haphazardly through the dark. #2 I was waiting with my duffle bag and flight bag at the airport, long before transportation arrived to take us to the camp. Vietnamese were everywhere, on the roads and in the camp. They were in places I thought would be taboo on a military base. #3 I was assigned to the supply sergeant for my equipment. He gave me two sets of jungle fatigues, olive-drab underwear, a towel, and a M-16 rifle with magazines. He told me to stuff all of my other junk into my duffle bag. #4 I was transferred to the Third Brigade of the Fourth Division, located in Due Pho, Vietnam. The camp was fully developed to the west, and more units were assigned areas in a steadily encroaching circle around to the east side, toward the sea.
