Mail Call! GIs took a pen and piece of paper and wrote a letter. No stamp required for GI letters leaving South Vietnam; just wrote the word FREE where the stamp would have been placed. Read a lot of books too! No such things as computers/Nintendo games/or cell phones back then. Men had to know how to read and write back then. If they didn't (and some men didn't) other GIs would write the letter for them and read letters to them.
