Elements Of Comedy Found In Saigon War Scene
Charles Mohr describes Saigon's blend of absurdity and culture amid war. He notes napalm spoons in restaurants, improvised metalwork by peasants, Western bootmaking for soldiers, a dragon jacket worn by a rider, a rooftop band entertaining at Rex, PX Alley street stalls selling blankets and goods, and military advisers with a irreverent sense of duty.
