At the start of 1967, Jim Wagner shipped out to Vietnam. As a UH-1D Huey crew chief and door gunner, Wagner was part of the 9th Aviation Battalion that would ferry infantry of the 9th Infantry Division into and out of combat in III Corps Tactical Zone in the Mekong Delta in South Vietnam. Interdicting the movements of Viet Cong kept Wagner and his unit in near constant combat with the author accumulating over 1800 air hours on combat operations. Day to day, Wagner flew direct support, combat assault, medical Evac, or low level aerial recon missions for platoon or company sized elements of the 9th Division. Wagner experienced it all, from the surreal of flying over Nancy Sinatra at a USO concert to secret missions flying special forces across the border into Cambodia to the Tet Offensive.

spiz-neak is actually the word "speak." It is a language, based on splitting and changing English words a little bit, that your parents, teachers, and unwanted listeners won't understand when you are speaking it with those in your inner circle. It does not take long to master spiz-neak, and if you practice it a little each day you will be able to speak it fast. Spiz-neak will not only keep your conversations secret, but it is a lot of fun!

There's no "safe space" for you inside here. This is where you're going to face reality, and change for the better. In this great camp you liberal, politically correct, progressive, Millennials and Gen Zers will be presented with every major issue facing our society today, and be reeducated to think, act, and believe like a God-fearing, NRA card carrying, capitalist, conservative, Republican to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. But, before you have a toddler's tantrum if this very thought disturbs you, which I (your camp drill sergeant) know it does, you can do the Sun Tzu thing - "Know your enemy." If you want to win back the White House, Congress, and most of the governor seats you have lost, then you better know how your enemy thinks, their strategy, and the tactics they use against you. Think of this camp as your "cause" for gathering intelligence. But, then again, you may just find yourself changing your mind about everything you had previously believed in when you're released from here, and walk out of these gates.
