Some themes must be universal. One of the pieces I did as a soldier artist in Vietnam was a 1st Infantry Division soldier receiving a field haircut, so I sketched the scene and later made this watercolor and ink painting. An Englishman, in contact with North Vietnamese soldier-artists, sent me a copy of a drawing. This drawing by a Viet Cong soldier-artist, portrays a North Vietnamese soldier getting a field haircut. Ink/Watercolor print on foam board.

Door gunners had a dangerous job in Vietnam. On mu visit with the 196th :IB I flew on an aerial recon. Two officers sat on the floor of the helicopter reading maps and looking out the open door as they radioed ground units. While this was going on I got a change to look over the shoulder of the Door Gunner which influenced me to do this pen and ink drawing.

Soldiers playing a "Leisurely" game of cards for relaxation during off duty moments is common in war zones. Vietnam was no different. Not visible, but in the center of this watercolor I would bet there was "Funny Money" exchanging hands. "Funny Money" is what soldiers called Military Payment Certificates (MPC) which was Military Issues Currency used in Vietnam in place of official US Currency. MPC money could be exchanged for "real money" when a soldier left an MPC Zone such a Vietnam. Watercolor print on foamboard.
