Chapter 1790 Respect(Incest/Taboo Sex):>>Ep2

• I got my orders for Vietnam. Didn't have time to go home on leave before shipping out. Only managed to find a phone and spent an hour talking with the folks. Connie wasn't there, of course. I tried to reach her at the UW but wasn't successful.
• The problem with her sending me fewer letters was that what I wanted was more letters, not fewer. The spacing between letters only increased as my tour continued. She had great difficulty keeping her opinions on the war from intruding. It finally got so difficult reading them that by six months in-country, I cut back on the few replies I made to her.
• So, here we are, back where I started. We were in open rice paddy country. Our platoon emerged from a wooded island into a set of paddies, maybe 200 meters across to the next island. The island presented a linear wood line, about 100 meters in width, just in from the paddy. We came out and aligned in a staggard line across, covering the full width of the opposing island. Wood lines are scary things when you're in the open and advancing towards them.
