This was my temporary apotheosis as Master of the Beer in Vietnam (Ban Me Thuot, II Corps). Through a slight clipboard mix-up I was able to order 500 cases of beer, which I distributed to the guys in the field at cost, I think $1.20 a case. I was a popular guy for awhile there. But then I had to go back to blowing stuff up, which was my actual Military Occupational Specialty.
Happy Veterans' Day to the survivors.
