"U.S. army Soldier - Artists in Vietnam"

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.

List of teams and members from 1966-1992

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.

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.

I was flown by a supply helicopter to a 196th unit on patrol in the Chu Lai area. When I arrived the patrol was guarding a group of kids. The First Lieutenant in charge said: "What am I going to do with them? If I turn them loose they may be VC sympathizers and give the location of our camp. If I don't turn them loose it means we will have to feed them and stand guard which means extra c-rations and extra men..." The kids were kept overnight, in the morning, chattering and wet from the rain, they were fed and let go. On this same patrol with the 196th I made my first poncho tent. It tool a while but eventually I got the stakes and poncho arranged so I could get under it. I was proud of how it turned out. It started to pour and soon realized I had a problem, water was gushing into my tent. I had neglected to dig a trench. Soaked, I got up and dug the trench. Two photographs printed and put on foam board.

Tramping through the jungles and rice paddies in Vietnam's hot bug infested environment was unpleasant and fatiguing. I only spent from 1-3 days at a time in the field with any particular unit. Solders that spent a full rout doing this dangerous work had and still have my respect and admiration. Four photographs printed and put on foam board.

As an artist traveling with the 196th LIB in the Chu Lai area of Vietnam I experience first hand the hardship of ordinary soldiers in Vietnam experienced daily. It was blistering hot and bugs swarmed as we waded through a dirty leech infested stream. When we reached dry ground one of the soldiers said, "you getter take your boots off and check yourself over." I took my boots and socks off and my legs were covered with leeches. The soldiers got a good laugh when they saw my startled book as I plucked leeches from my legs. I stayed with this patrol until the next resupply helicopter came. It wasn't fair I could leave, but my new found friends seemed to understand and wished me well. Several soldiers shook my hand as I made my way to the waiting craft. I could hear someone say as I climbed aboard the waiting helicopter, "Come back and see us again some time." Watercolor print on foam board.

Medical Evacuations in Vietnam were efficient. Dust-off crew members unselfishly sent into battle zones and put themselves in danger in order to save the lives of the wounded. Oil print on foam board.

Soap and other personal hygiene items were distributed to villagers. Three photographs prints and put on foam board.
