Hot sun, sand, palm trees, underage drinking -- and you thought *today's* teenagers were unruly! Second Platoon of the 162d (the -- ahem -- *Junior* Varsity) observing some off-camera shenannigans, most likely involving Baby-San and the ingredients for homemade napalm. Photo courtesy of V29, who says the photo's not blurry, the guys actually looked that way to him after a couple of warm PBRs. Indigenous hat courtesy of someone dumb enough to be carrying an AK in a Free Fire Zone.

They photo is blurry because the ugliness therein depicted almost melted my camera. These guys were the 2nd platoon aircraft commanders circa May '69. The black guy took over for me as flight lead, and the guy next to him is still in the Kansas Guard. He is a CW5 and the Governor's pilot. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/04/caption_contest.html#comment-43893 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/04/caption_contest.html#comment-43893 Thu, 13 Apr 2006 09:20:25 -0600 [Guy holding cooler] Two-Niner!
