Nice Smile
 

One of the memories that will stay with a Nam Vet forever, no matter what their job or location was, is the image of the old mama-sans and papa-sans with black teeth. Them flashing that big, black grin at you. This was from a lifetime of chewing betel nuts. I guess it was as addictive as chewing tobacco and gave the chewer a buzz. Like chewing tobacco, it made the user spit....alot. I doubt if it was very good for you if swallowed. The spit was blood red. I saw it being chewed in every part of the country that I served in. The only G.I. that I ever knew to try it was an SF sergeant that I knew at Ft. Bragg. He said he got hooked on it while living with the Montagnards in the Central Highlands. He was a tobacco chewer when I met him. His teeth weren't black, but they had a brown tint to them :D . So how 'bout it? Anybody give it a try?

That sight just makes you wonder why you ever left good old Nam.

:D

How about a warning first!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey baby!!!

No body in my Platoon ever ever gained weight. The trick was to lose it gradually and not in large chunks in the middle of an explosion.

I went over there 150 lbs and came back 134. I was 6' 2". fIt took me several years to gain back my weight.
