HK 1973.
One of the major pitfalls for singles in HK was the ever present threat of venereal disease and squaddies can be devils sometimes.
My mate Benny had a few too many San Migs one night down in Wan Chai and was struggling to keep up with the rest of the section on our night out before a long exercise.
In a dark doorway on the way to the Back Door Club there sat the oldest bar girl?? I have ever seen. Toothless, wrinkly, must have been at least in line for a bus pass. The inevitable:
"Hey, Johnny, You want F***y F***y?
Well...we just had to park Benny up somewhere didn't we?
Seven to nine days later Benny reports to the field medic at Sek Kong with something unpleasant and smelly leaking from certain areas.
He goes into the tent.
"I think I've caught a cold and it hurts down there"
The medic, not wanting to get too close steps outside the tent and pops his head through the entrance, holding the flaps around his neck so that only his head is inside.
"Ok, Drop 'em, Short arms inspection."
Benny obliges.
"See!"
Ok, don't move" says the medic.
"Eh?"
"We'll give it two minutes, if it doesn't sneeze we'll call it a dose!"
True story
Sorry Benny.
