For all you do . . .
Marines work hard but they know how to play too. Here are pictures of Beer Day, held last Sunday at FOB Hotel. Marines and sailors with 1/4, 11th MEU each received the day off and two beers and a very small bottle of rum. Flag football, ping pong, volleyball and spades tournaments and other activities were arranged by the Morale, Welfare and Recreation representative.

There you guys are eating and drinking again. All of this is going to catch up with you guys when you hit thereabouts thirty-five or so. Humanitarian efforts are supposed to focus on the people you are liberating. How 'bout sharin' some of your food with the kids? I think it will save you a lot of personal grief in the years to come.
I can still remember my uncle underneath the bed during thunderstorms. They weren't 'Gooks' or 'Dinks' to him by that time: they were people; humans. And he couldn't bare what he had done to them, so he did it to himself.
If you think I have no right to talk about this because I am not over there with you, you are wrong. I am as much a part of this war as you, and I am as much a part of Vietnam as you are too. You are going to bring all of this back with you, and the hurt will continue. You may hurt others such as your loved ones; you may even hurt yourself.
Better start lovin' on those Iraqi children! I don't know about Big Brother so much, but I know God is watching!
