"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 />
