    I remember getting on a cattle car at Ft. Dix, NJ heading to a basic training company. I was standing next to a D.I. who asked me where I was from. When I answered, "Alabama," he said, "I hope you left your white sheet at home." For a time I was harassed by some fellow trainees who assumed (wrongly) that I was automatically a member of the KKK simply because I was from the south.

    I rode that cattle car in Aug of '70 (B-6-3), but I remember my DI saying he was color blind - he could only see OD Green - just like Charlie - and the VC/NVA will kill you if you have on OD Green, regardless of the color of your skin
