Ode to the Infantryman in RVN

l lie in my tent,
thanking God for free rent.
While outside the rain pours,
and inside my buddy snores.
Muddy floors & a wet cot,
but still thanking God a lot.
Got hot chow every day,
rain or shine, come what may.
Got a dog bout two weeks old
eats C-rations hot or cold.
Special Forces all around,
keeping safe this hallowed ground.
1st Cav in the air,
landing, fighting here & there.
Ain’t got much but could be worse,
just ask the men in the 101st.

Anonymous Signal Corpsman in Nha Trang, Republic of Vietnam
