Michael Thomas Ford - Full Circle - Plot & Excerpts
Digger and I were working on some boys who had been brought in that afternoon after their supply truck was ambushed by NVA soldiers on Thunder Road. Such attacks were common, but had been more frequent in recent weeks. The attackers left the men dead on the road, but took the truck and its cargo of medical supplies. "This is Radio First Termer," Nguyen continued. "The purpose of this program is to bring vital news, information, and hard acid-rock music to the first termers and non-reenlistees in the Republic of Vietnam. Radio First Termer operates under no air force regulations or manuals. In the event of a vice squad raid, this program will automatically self-destruct. Your host tonight is Dave Rabbit." "Do you think they'll ever catch him?" Digger asked me as he finished closing the wound on the corpse he was cleaning up. "I hope not," I answered as I cataloged the dead soldier's belongings. His VC killers had taken almost everything off him, leaving only a St. Christopher medal around his neck and, tucked into his boot, a condom in a well-worn wrapper suggesting it had been there for some time.
