:18:04
This is AFRS, Radio Saigon,
and yours truly...

:18:07
Dan "The Man" Levitan.
:18:09
Greetings and salutations
to any and all servicemen in the area...

:18:13
and thanks so much
for joining us.

:18:18
Yeah! Yeah!
:18:20
Yeah, he's funny! I know funny.
This guy is funny!

:18:25
Sensational!
:18:27
- At ease!
- Hell, we already are.

:18:30
Just cool your tongue, Airman,
because I intend to take issue
with your performance.

:18:37
First of all, don't make fun
of the weather here.

:18:40
And don't say that the weather
is the same all the time here,
because it's not.

:18:43
- In fact, it's two degrees
cooler today than yesterday.
- Two degrees cooler?

:18:47
Me without my muff.
:18:50
- Muff! I tell you, this guy's funny.
- I'm trying to run a meeting here.

:18:54
You know, I hate the fact
that you people never salute me.

:18:58
I am a lieutenant,
and I would like salutes occasionally.

:19:01
That's what being a higher rank
is all about.

:19:03
Second...
:19:06
- Second...
- Programming taste.

:19:08
Programming taste.
:19:10
Frankly, I found your "I love
a police action" remark way out of line.

:19:15
How can you have the gall to compare
the conflict here in Vietnam...

:19:18
with a glass
of cappuccino coffee?

:19:20
Well, I was... It just comes up.
I was trying to be funny.

:19:23
- Funny is good. Funny is good.
- Yeah.

:19:26
But then do it by using
comedy and humour...

:19:28
not police action
and coffee remarks.

:19:31
Furthermore, you are to stick
to playing normal modes of music...

:19:35
not wild stuff.
:19:37
Those we would find acceptable here
would include Lawrence Welk...

:19:41
Jim Nabors, Mantovani.
:19:44
- Percy Faith.
- Percy Faith. Good!

:19:47
Andy Williams, Perry Como and
certain ballads by Mr Frank Sinatra.

:19:52
- Would Bob Dylan be out of line?
- Way, way, way out of line.

:19:57
Former VP Richard Nixon
will arrive here this week.
