This kind of thing depends on the rank of the soldier, but normally conditions were bad and rations were even worse, men only got a tiny amount of space and a single bunk to call his own. Above all that was the conditions of the fighting, it was a terrible place for a war, the Vietnamese had all the advantages, they knew the terrain, and on their own ground they outclassed the Americans, the Americans were victims of numerous ambushes and suprise attacks which eventually warranted their retreat.
