King was carrying a case of 24 cans of Budweiser beer from the Top""s supply.He was approached by Sgt.O""Neill and Sanderson (J.Adam Glover), who asked about the stolen merchandise: "You""re going on report, son." Chris and King were assigned to cleaning out he outhouse ("light duty") - to remove barrels of feces and urine, as a loudspeaker broadcast the familiar radio greeting: "Goo-o-o-o-o-ood morning, Vietnam!"King and California blonde surfer Crawford (Chris Pedersen) complained about the politics of the war, and jabbered on about how long they each had left in their tours of duty until escaping with a "wake-up":King: They always f--kin"" with us, no let-up!
