"Let us help put Viet Nam behind you with free<br />

counseling services," says Ray Madrid, Team Leader at<br />

the Mission Street Vet Center, one of two Vet Centers<br />

in <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong>. Operation Outreach (Vet Centers)<br />

was established nationwide in 1979 to address the problem<br />

of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), also<br />

known as delayed stress, among Viet Nam combat<br />

veterans. PTSD is not a mental disorder; its a reaction<br />

to extreme stress (delayed, chronic or acute). The<br />

Centers offer readjustment counseling services and<br />

other services. Readjustment counseling (individual,<br />

couples, family or rap group) is geared to enable the<br />

veteran to discuss the "here and now," and how it<br />

relates to their experiences in the Viet Nam War. The<br />

Vet Centers offer a place where vets can feel welcomed,<br />

and ensures the confidentiality of its clients. Experienced<br />

counselors are available to assist you and your family.<br />

Deputy Chief James P. Shannon<br />

S.F.P.D. Administration<br />

Dear Sir:<br />

Remember me, the wild and crazy highway<br />

patrolman from Colorado, who back in 1978 solicited<br />

your help in aiding us to get rid of the mandatory crossdraw<br />

holster our department members had to carry?<br />

Well sir, thanks to your assistance, we not only got rid<br />

of the holsters, but also the hats we had to wear in the<br />

patrol cars.<br />

I have since left the Colorado State Patrol, and put in<br />

another three years in the Denver municipal police<br />

department. Now I am into fuiltime writing and concentrating<br />

on my Vietnam military police experiences,<br />

which have escalated into a monthly column, known as<br />

the SAIGON BEAT.<br />

The problems is that after three years of writing the<br />

column, I'm running out of true material. I'm sure you<br />

might know some Vietnam MP vets who might want to<br />

see their work/adventure published. Could you post the<br />

endorsed poster on your bulletin board for the best exposure.<br />

Any help I get will be greatly appreciated.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Nicholas Cain<br />

' I NEED YOUR TRUE-LIFE EXPERIENCES FOR<br />

MY MONTHLY MAGAZINE COLUMN!<br />

As author of SAIGON BEAT, a monthly series of<br />

Military <strong>Police</strong> escapades and adventures in the international<br />

military magazine "GUNG HO," I need new,<br />

fresh material. I have been the guiding force behind<br />

SAIGON BEAT for the last three years, but my experiences<br />

in the 'Nam were limited and are quickly running<br />

out.... To keep the column running, I wish to<br />

share SAIGON BEAT with my fellow Vietnam veterans<br />

who are now American police officers nationwide! AND<br />

I'LL PAY YOU FOR YOUR STORIES! A minimum<br />

of a fast $100 per episode, but never less than 33% of<br />

my paycheck per column.<br />

This is your chance to see those precious war stories<br />

and guarded memories finally in print, to be shared by<br />

other professionals who appreciate them only as fellowvets<br />

could. Even the civilians who stayed behind, who<br />

could not possibly come to know the 'Nam, praise<br />

SAIGON BEAT for its fast-paced, action-packed and<br />

enlightening adventures.<br />

As a former police officer, (three years metro-<br />

Denver, three years Colorado Highway Patrol, and<br />

three years a military police Sgt. in Asia), I realize how<br />

sacred your personal life is. Therefore, all<br />

material/photos sent to me are kept in the strictest confidence!<br />

ALL PHOTOS ARE RETURNED, and you<br />

must approve, in writing, a final draft of the column<br />

before I submit it to my publisher. You may use a<br />

pseudonym, or your real name. YOU DECIDE whether<br />

we list your present background experience - we will<br />

never embarrass you or your department through your<br />

association with my SAIGON BEAT column.<br />

WE ARE NOT A MERCENARY MAGAZINE! We<br />

- have had interviews with ex-CIA head General John<br />

Singlaub, medal-of-honor winner Colonel Anthony<br />

Herbert, (author of the bestseller "Soldier") and<br />

several over professionals who would not lend their<br />

names to radical publications. "GUNG HO" has also<br />

led the field in news-breaking SPECIALS. Our June '81<br />

issue released the first story in print about the TOP<br />

SECRET MAC-SOG penetration groups in Vietnam.<br />

The Pentagon and CIA even subscribe to "GUNG HO"<br />

because they realize our foreign correspondents usually<br />

out-SCOOP even the super-SPOOKS.<br />

INTERESTED? Please write if you are. Big bucks<br />

are not the question here, SAIGON BEAT is not quite<br />

the BIG TIMES yet. But it is an avenue in which your<br />

adventures can finally find PRINT and an INTERNA-<br />

TIONAL audience. I'm looking forward to hearing<br />

from you....<br />
