Now that I’m back at Chu Lai, I’ll try to write something everyday - like before. I have returned to normal activity - flew twice today - just like the old days - and will probably fly twice tomorrow.
I’m reading a real good book about a fighter pilot in WWII (a novel). It is written in a very sarcastic manner and points out all the absurdities of the way the military did things. That’s the kind of book I would like to write about my experiences with the grunts!! I really wish I did have the ability to write, because there is so much I would like to say about the “system”.
I told the P.X. officer about the slide projector and he said he would be glad to replace it! Of course that’s not very feasible now. I just wanted him to be aware of what happened.
It’s really strange how I’m so glad to be back here! No matter how bad it is here - it’s not as bad as it was there!!!!

I would sure like to know the name of the novel you were reading!
