Being an enterprising individual I didn't think living in a pup tent was too good an idea. I had this dugout constructed for me by some Korean men. I covered it with canvas and it was nice to live in for a while. Notice I had a record player. I had bought some Korean records and played them for relaxation. I can still sing the songs that I learned from listening. Toragi, Aridong, Sa rong ha shim, Chosin Eguka, and many others I still remember and can still sing although my sons would claim I could not sing at all. The men also built me a table to store my stuff on so I could keep things out for use. It is being aired out now after a rain.

My bed is a standard army cot and a standard army sleeping bag with a purchased pillow. It was a comfortable home for a while. The dugout was well ditched so it did not leak or fill with water. Being in the ground it was cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.    Hi-Res Pic (132K)
