And we used baby oil when tanning... Set up a small kiddie pool with the lounge chair over it, so you'd get the sun reflecting back.

(which is probably why he gets sun poison every year) He was a grunt, and they were very aware of the necessity of avoiding any scent the VC might pick up on, so they didn't even use bug repellent.Susan Flett Swiderskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425315552148200073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8744889144101573638.post-72563707433040856092011-08-04T22:45:32.988-04:002011-08-04T22:45:32.988-04:00My brother used baby oil and iodine in Vietnam- ca...My brother used baby oil and iodine in Vietnam- came back quite brown.
