I arrived at CanTho in March of 68, right after Tet. I remember sleeping in the barracks that first week and someone waking me up for KP. I said, I can't have KP, this is Nam!! Turned out that most of the locals had been restricted from the base because some of them had been "spotters" for VC mortar attacks. During my entire 25 months on the base, I stayed in the barracks that was right at the T at the end of the road coming straight from the main gate.
