    Good morning, Lai Khe. Radio Lai Khe, Happy Radio for the Big Red One! Charlie Mercer here at KLIK, thirteen thirty on your dial. The new stack has arrived. Somebody has written B side on the sleeves as though that settled anything. We shall let the turntable hear the evidence.

    A brief item from the space programme. NASA's Apollo Four made its unmanned test flight on November ninth. It was the first flight of the three-stage Saturn Five rocket, and the Apollo command module returned to the Pacific after the test. No astronauts were aboard.

  17. DJ · Charlie Mercer

    That is the pleasure of turning a record over. Sometimes the fellow on the other side has been waiting all week to get a word in. Keep the requests coming; artist and title help more than humming at the telephone.

  18. Service spotSavings

    Let your tour in Vietnam count for something. The Uniformed Services Savings Deposit Program pays ten percent interest on authorized deposits. You may arrange a regular amount from your pay and go home with money in the bank. For eligibility, limits, and deposit instructions, see your unit finance office.

  19. Service spotDriving

    A vehicle does not care whether you are tired, angry, late, or thinking about tomorrow. It goes exactly where you point it. Keep your eyes on the road, keep both hands ready, and leave the radio controls alone until you stop. In rain, dust, convoy traffic, or blackout conditions, slow down before the road makes the decision for you. Drive as if the other fellow has not seen you. He may not have.

  20. DJ · Charlie Mercer

  23. Service spotBlack Market

    There are markets for practically everything in Vietnam, and one market will buy or sell almost anything: the black market. It deals in stolen and illegal goods. Military equipment, supplies, and military payment certificates do not belong there. Do not buy from the black market, and do not feed it by selling government property.
