"Ye Olde Tonsorial Parlor: 1969: Personal luxuries are rarely found with Marine units operating in the Republic of Vietnam, but 2d Battalion, 26th Marines [2/26] discovering they had a genuine Vietnamese barber in their unit. The infantry unit is providing security for the Hai Van Pass, a major land supply route north of Da Nang. Their normally static positions enabled them to strike up friendships with Army of the Republic of Vietnam personnel assisting them in keeping the pass clear for supply convoys. When one of the Vietnamese indicated he had been in a barber before entering the service, the Marines immediately set up a field barber shop and business boomed (official USMC photo by Sergeant Frank Fox)."
