9 out of 10 GI's in Vietnam smoked cigarettes (cigarettes were ISSUED in every "C" Ration Meal). Probably 5 out of those 10 men owned Zippo cigarette lighters (the rest of us used matches, that also came in every "C" Ration Meal). The "zippo" cigarette lighters were also used to ignite the thatched roofs of people's homes (burning down villages).
