“Maybe 5% are classical buffs, maybe 10% folkies (the ‘Seekers’ and ‘Weavers’ types). Another 30% are R&B fanatics (mostly from east of the Rockies) and 10% dig country (in our idiom, shitkicking) music. About 20% have their foot in both deep rock and commercial sounds. Well, here is the rundown: About 10% of sailors know rock in every form, can rattle off managers’ and band members’ names etc. “The median sailor comes from a small town in the Midwest and comes generally from the wide middle-class stratum, is high school graduate, has dabbled maybe even with college, and may have been picked up by local police for some minor infraction. A Navy Personnelman 3rd Class with over three years’ service breaks down this way: Respondents represent just about every branch of the service, including Marines and Green Berets.Īllowing for the self-selection in the various branches of the service, you can say that young men bring the common tastes of their age-group with them when they enter the service. In order to find out what was going on, Rolling Stone recently sent questionnaires to a selected group of servicemen who reported from nearly fifty military stations - Air Force Bases, ships at sea, Pacific Islands, stateside bases, Saigon, huge military bases and even jungle patrols in Vietnam.
The voluntary combat services, the Air Force, the Special Forces (Green Berets), and the Marines, are a different story - but not altogether, as we shall see. The Navy and the Coast Guard, favored duty for men facing the draft who want to avoid combat duty and bad chow, is filled with even more unmilitary types than the Army, especially among the Medical Corpsmen. And thus, so grows the United States Armed Forces overseas, wild as a march hare. In the highlands of Vietnam, where daily battle is waged, such amenities do not exist. In Vietnam, you can buy marijuana already processed into cigarette form, packaged 10 to the pack (200 to the carton) and a pack costs a dollar. But most of all it is Vietnam: the Army has taken hundreds of thousands of students out of school and plopped them into what seems like a marijuana-heaven on earth. We can help you achieve what you want to do in life.In the past year the Army has been directly responsible for turning on probably more than a quarter of a million young American innocents by sending them to Vietnam, and thousands of others merely by putting them together with others of their age - whether in Europe, Asia, or even right down home in Louisiana.
