...to recover contents such as shoes,|socks and undergarments.
And now an item of special note.
Barring any change in the weather,|the softball game...
between the 133rd|and 4th infantry divisions...
will resume as scheduled|at the Ban Mi Thout Park...
corner of Viet Ho and Hguen|Van Theiuh streets here in Saigon.
Please make a note of it.|Excuse me.
Those men who lost equipment|in last week's rains...
are asked to contact|Lieutenant Sam Scheer.
Lieutenant Schneer-- Lieutenant Scheer|asks those men with waterlogged mitts...
to make every effort to dry them out|in the sun before requesting new ones.
Bookworms:
Headquarters|Support Activities Saigon...operates libraries at six locations|in the Republic of Vietnam.

Phung Tao, Saigon,|Bien Wah and San Treng.
If you can't stop in|and select your own books...
write to the HSAS Library.
Ask for the books by author,|title and subject...
and your selections|will be mailed to you.
With the holiday season|rapidly approaching...
those personnel wishing|to spend Christmas cards home--
wishing to send Christmas|cards home to the States--
are asked to do so|no later than August 13...
due to a yearly mail rush|at that time.
Don't disappoint your--
watch the liberties you take.
Lost luggage:
regrets any inconvenience...
on transport carriers.
be personnel missing luggage--
Gerald Kleiner over at the 5th.
than four by five inches...
the contents of your duffel.
as all duffels look alike.
Those personnel with lost bag--
- All right.|- Hey, Sarge, where are the women?
- Airman Cronauer?|- You got it.
- Welcome to Saigon, sir.|- Careful. You could|put an eye out with that.
- God, it's warm, huh?|- Warm? No. This is a setting|for London broil.
I'm Private First Class Edward|Montesque Garlick at your service, sir.
Well, first thing, Garlick,|is you gotta requisition a new name.
I like you already, sir.
Actually, what I am, sir, is|your Armed Forces Radio Saigon|assistant who's in charge...
of orientation and billeting of|enlisted personnel, and company clerk.
Whew. I'm impressed.
- It's already started.|- I understand.
Dream on
Dream on
Dream about a love so fine
Sweet as apple-berry wine
Dream on
Dream on
This is AFRS, Radio Saigon.
by the United States government...
carrier frequency of 540...
- at 749 megahertz.|-Jesus, that guy's|as boring as whale sh*t.
Not really.|See, the purpose is to inform you|as to the radius of the radio waves.
- ...by Mantovani.|- Mantovani?
They play Mantovani to insomniacs|who don't respond to strong drugs.
General likes easy listening. You know,|I'm really gonna have to inform you--
Mayday! Mayday! Dragon lady|with incredible figure at 11:00.|Stop the car.
- I can't do that, sir.|- Oh, Edward, Edward,|you don't understand.
I've been on a small Greek island|with a lot of women who look like Zorba.|I never thought I'd find|women attractive ever again.
And now that I do, you won't even|turn the car around? Thanks a lot.
- You have a very important|meeting with the top brass.|- Oh! There she is again!
- How'd she get ahead of us?|- That's another person, sir.
Ah, she's beautiful and quick.|Speed up. Check her stamina.
This is incredible! Oh, my God!|They're quick, they're fast and small.
I feel like a fox|in a chicken coop.
We got a new man comin'in.
- Don't you understand, Dick?|- No, sir. Frankly, I do not understand.
Would you kindly|lower your tone, please?
Yes, sir.
I run this show, General. If anything|screws up, it's my ass in the mower.
I deserve to be notified|of any changes that are made.
Nobody's arguing that with you.
Look, I caught his show on the|Isle of Crete, and this guy is funny.
I damn near busted a gut laughin' at|him. And the troops, they love him.
This is a tempest in a teacup...
much ado about nothing.
For crying out loud, man,|this isn't brain surgery.
Don't get crazy over this, Dick.|We're only talking about a damn deejay.
Sir, there is no such thing as "only"|any more. Not now. Not in Saigon.
Lieutenant Steven Hauk|is our immediate supervisor.
He's a little goofy,|but he's okay.
Sergeant Major Dickerson--|That's another story altogether.
He was a commander|of an elite special forces unit.
He came to us because|of"prostrate" problems...
and some sort of social infection|that doesn't go away.
Plus, I think he got shot in the ass,|but I can't confirm that.
Anyway, he's the man|that you don't want to aggravate.
- Ed, are you always this happy?|- Cronauer!
- Sir!|- At ease. I'm General Taylor.
- Hiya, General.|- A real pleasure.
Listen, if you have any problems|here now, you come see me.
I'm the tallest hog|in the trough around here.
- Garlick, have you put on some weight?|- I don't think so, sir.
Why, son, the shadow|of your ass'd weigh 20 pounds.
I'll work on that, sir.|You're not supposed to address|the general saying "hiya."
- What's that, a new rule?|- No, old rule.
- That's Lieutenant Hauk in there.|- Who's the guy with the ears?
How're you doin'?|You could fly to Guam with those.
Uh, Airman Cronauer, sir.
You know, i-it wouldn't kill you people|to salute me once in a while.
- Sorry.|- Thanks.
I understand you're pretty funny|as a deejay, and...
well, comedy|is a kind of hobby of mine.
Well-- Well, actually, it's|a little more than just a hobby.
Reader's Digest is considering|publishing two of my jokes.
- Really?|- Yeah.
And perhaps some night we could|maybe get together and swap|humorous stories for-for fun.
Oh, why not? Maybe play a couple|of Tennessee Ernie Ford records.|That'd be a hoot.
- That's a joke, right?|- Maybe.|- I get it.
Where is this man's paperwork?
- Right here, Sergeant.|- Thank you, sir.
United States Air Force.|The hat does give you away.
- This is not military issue, Airman.|What sort of uniform is that?|- Cretan camouflage.
If you want to blend into a crowd of|drunken Greeks, there's nothin' better.
That is humour.|I recognize that.
I also recognize|your species of soldier.
I had a guy like you in the field|one time. He blew himself to pieces.
But not before his humour cost the lives|of three very fine individuals.
- I hope--|- You shut your f***in' hole!
You're in Southeast Asia now, pal.|You got your cushy little assignment.
There's nothin' I can|do about that.
In time, you will|make me forget it.
You stay out of my way,|there'll be no problem.
But if you toy with me,|I'll burn you so bad...
you'll wish you died as a child.
- Am I being fairly clear?|- Yes, sir.
"Sir"?|I work for a living, Airman.
You will address me|as Sergeant Major Dickerson.
Yes, Sergeant Major Dickerson.
He reminds me a lot of Donna Reed,|especially around the eyes.
Hello, hello, hello.
This is your chaplain,|Captain Noel...
your radio programme|of personal beliefs.
Great and manifold|are our blessings today.
This great godly miracle|of radio...
really gives me the opportunity...
to speak to you on the air!
