I was at Can Tho Field for about two weeks in early 67. If I remember there were 55 gallon drums and wing tanks up on posts that held water. We just stood under them and turned a valve and water came out. The deal wasthis: Enlisted in the AM, Officers in the PM. Being E-4s a buddy and I got fired of the cold water in the AM. We also realized that there were NO INSIGNIA on our TOWELS or on our BEHINDS! So we would saunter over in the PM as "Lt." Dan and "Lt." Ralph and shower with the elite! No one ever caught on. Anyhow, even if they did what were they going to do? Send us to Viet Nam?!
