This was the era of the Civil Rights Movement: Black Panthers, Martin Luther King Jr., Marches, and Riots. In South Vietnam, while in the field...all GI's were brothers...once in the rear areas of major base camps they separated into their own "clicks." Those were dangerous times; the effects of the aforementioned groups/organizations heavily influenced the GI's in the rear areas, with no enemy to fight in the rear...GI's became their own worst enemy.
