Saigon in '68 had lots of bombs being tossed in bars and wired to jeeps and stuffed into bicycle frames. I was farther up country, myself. Bomb dropping was pretty much just done by us and Nguyen Cao Ky, who bombed his political opponents homes from planes that we gave him.

BTW, back then 14 was the age of consent in the North, I'm told, but 12 was legal in the Fascist South. Today, it's 14 EVERYWHERE in SE Asia (and most places in Europe).

I never saw a whole whorehouse of them. The only time I was offered one it was on the street and the pimp was clearly her father. Her 8 year old brother was for sale, too. Because they were about 3 meals away from terminal starvation, I didn't kill him.
