It was about 1982-83 I stopped in a corner stop and rob to buy the latest issue of Soldier Of Fortune magazine. It happened to be a Cover shot of the Ia Drang valley battle. We had many Vietnamese in those days working fishing boat and 7/11 type stores in Texas.
Clerk rang it up and said Me there in his best broken English. I just did not have the nerve to ask Which Side?😂
