We did much the same thing for them at Mang Buk, but because we were isolated we had to make sure we had local security operations extra heavy and outside of mortar and rocket range on the evening we showed flicks. They loved Clint Eastwood movies and we had Eastwood groupies. They would show up the next day with those indigenous ponchos draped overthem like serapes (sp?). Like most we had cows brought in for slaughter and had a pretty sizeable herd. Got to the point where the Team Sergeant got a bunch of black stetsons sent in and the yards thought that was great. They all wanted to take turns working the herd and wearing the stetsons.
