John Rosique171 viewsThese are the toys that I had in my room in Cam Ranh Bay, Vietnam. I only have the turntable and speakers today. I built the cabinet our of scrap 3/4" plywood. I also had a refrigerator in my room. I kept sodas for anyone willing to pay 15ยข for a soda. I did not always have it this good in Vietnam. My first three months were on an Army Base, Qui Nhon. The water was yellow and smelled bad. I had to sleep with my M16 and in a mosquito net.
