Viet-Commercial There is fear, perhaps distaste, in your heart. You have a desire to be some- where else catching the sun's rays in your mouth, as you run until you drop from exhaustion. You visualize the large, brown eyes of Vietnamese children, looking for night and day upon your face, as they hide in the shadows. You are the protector of the buildings that house them and the dispenser of warmth and security. It makes a man out of you when you have no desire to be a man and play father. Your eye must be capable of distinction between purity and filth and your mind prepared to absorb lead and reward. You must feel a sense of accomplishment whether you clothe a naked child or repair a weapon to be used later to kill your enemy. Smile as though you were warm inside even if you bitterly oppose your superior. Don't let your face be hardened into a frown from which the mass observes your dejection. You are a minute part of the mass Ca regiment of peopleD made poor through expulsion of morals, faith and love. V Be realistic in conception of war. Have no fantasy of victory or disillusion- ment in defeat. You know what you are seeking and possibly you are being sent to find it, although your vision is obscured by the density of the jungle and your desire is dampened as you trudge through marsh to avoid the undergrowth. You are a pillar to remain standing until war takes the ouch out of the Curad band-aid covering the hole in your chest, through which your enemy gazes into the future. SHERI Wroxwuus '67
